TVR Powers Body Shop - lights and dash

[bigdods]

I am planning to have TVR Powers bodyshop fit a replacement dash (mine is knackered) and later style faired in headlights.

Before I go ahead are there any other bodyshops doing the same or recommendations ? I dont want SP6 type lights or the lupos so this seems like the best way of keeping standard ish while upgrading them.

sportmotive I think do the MK3 ones as well, I ma having the MK3 ones fitted at powers bodyshop at the mo.

Slightly OT ..you're going to pay someone to replace the dashboard!? It is not a quick job but there is nothing too scary under there, I dread to think what you'd get charged to do a job that you could do yourself on a Sunday afternoon as long as you can undo a few screws, nuts and bolts. I have done mine on my current car twice now with no consequences.

Cheers,
Matt.

Can I ask how much it costs ?
My near side light needs changing and I also like the Mk3 style so would be the right time.
Thanks,
Tony.

£370+vat to supply and fit. I've had the dash off /out several times but its a pain of a job and at that price (and as they will have the car in anyway) its a no brainer for me.

I looked at Lupo conversions but having seen a load at Chatsworth I wasnt impressed with the fit and finish on any of them so decided to go MK3 instead.

Change prompted by both reflectors being rusted very badly.

Hmmm ... £150 + VAT for the HiD kit fitted ... wonder if there are any MOT implications on those?

I went with Sportmotive for my MK3 lights and dash change, I was impressed with the quality.
