    Just bought a 2005 CLK myself so watching your videos has been helpful. My steering wheel is disintegrating at the top as well so I bought a wood one. Good to know the newer tail lights fit well, I'm thinking of doing the same if I can find a pair for cheap.

      Glad to hear its been helpful! The wood wheels look great actually, good snag. The rear lights like I say sometimes need a small bit of metal bending from the internal structure where they sit but I got lucky and it didn't on mine, massively improves the rear end. Some on ebay at the mo for £45 each side, not bad 😄

    That's a nice Kawasaki Ninja 400 with an akrapovic exhaust in the background

      Sorry to say the car is gone, it kept breaking down every single month and was draining me financially and mentally 😂 Didn't seem to gain much traction here either so I cut my losses

      That's a shame...I'm gonna treat myself to a 220 sport for Christmas...what problems did it give you?

      @@roderickjones7479 220 sport will be mint. The 220 engine in my wifes is bulletproof. The main issues were either bushes (heavy engine up front) but I kept getting fuel pressure issues. Changed high pressure fuel pump, regulator, all lines etc and couldn't pinpoint the issue sadly. But I think that was engine specific being the 270. You'll be fine with a 220!

    £120 !! Good Scottish bargin? Eh I've just bought a 2016, bmw f22 project and it cost me £650 for a secondhand headlight !!

      I paid around £90 all in, hence why I made the drive as I saved so much money compared to buying the bits individually 😂 Those 2 series are cool, good going mate! Shame they cost that much, that's the downside to newer cars eh, much more expensive for fancy headlights and taillights etc!
