Re: Swan’s caddy build
Cheers mate and yes I have seen the ebay ones but I think they're a proper buy cheap buy twice job. Ah that's good to know. As long as the fit is bang on I'll be happy with the travelin lite ones

Sometimes the primed ones are too….I’ll pack those up and get them out next day delivery…dpd, and generally they are spot on

Hi mate!!
Good to hear about the covers
Can’t wait to get them sprayed and fitted.
Yeah I was gonna give you a heads up fella but I thought you’d be busy. I will next time though
Cheers mate

Re: Swan’s caddy build


My new wingmirrors turned up today. Can’t wait to see them painted and fitted. I’ll be putting the caps into the paint shop on Monday.
Spot on service from Travelin Lite I gotta say. I’ve had a few bits off them now and they’re all good.
Nice one to @Stedlocks for getting them sent out ASAP.

Re: Swan’s caddy build
No worries fella….glad they got there quickly!
And a few nice trinkets included for caddy2k boys and girls!
You can see what I mean about the quality of the caps? The aftermarket ones are identical to the originals

Re: Swan’s caddy build
I’ve had a very productive day today.
I swapped the reverse sensor wiring over from the brown to black BCM plug so they are now working again as they should.
Thanks to @Stan the man for making me up an adaptor for this.
Next job was to wire in a 5 watt bulb into the registration illumination lights loom, this has finally got rid of the pesky bulb out warning that’s been on my dash for years now.
Again, thanks to @Doc for the suggestion.
As you said mate, naughty but effective!
Final job of the day was to fit my new headlights with LED DRL’s and scrolling indicators, wasn’t looking forward to removing the bumper as I was frightened of cracking the paint but it went without a hitch



Next thing will be my new wingmirrors.

Nice, I like the lights!
They make the front end look a lot more modern.
