Great instructional video. To the point, didn't waste any time on pointless drivel at the start. Love it. Step by step, highlighted potential pitfalls and used correct terminology for various components/tools which are helpful for the DIYers needing to acquire said items. Really useful. Thanks for this. Thumbs up and am now sub'd to your channel.

I removed all handles and spout. The new spout went on and no issues. Now the handles, no. I bought what looks like the old handles. Now, the pipe coming out of the wall seems too long? Its the base unit that has the back plate on it. Its not long enough. I got the old corroded ones out and they come with just the vanity ring separate. Guess what they don't fit now either! I'm a 67 yr old grateful women. But, its just me and I don't know what to do. I can't afford a plumber. Can you help me. The pipes coming out of the wall is fine. I don't know what to do.
