I’m assuming u not got a spanish one then , just matriculate one and use the other for parts . 
headlights are a tricky one cos then can range from 150 up to 2 k for one friggin headlight .

I paid 760 for a pair of lights for a Range Rover , I called a British company that I’ve used many many times , the experts of the experts , and he said we are the cheapest at 1350 each , I said nahhh I can get a pair for 760 ....

...

He said I promise you they won’t be the correct ones .


so I plugged fir the cheap ones , took it to a garage where we both stripped parts off to save time , we had a right game to change em even with 2 5ft snap on chests to use .

And yup he was right they wernt right but they work ok so happy days 

I've got 3 cars at the minute, the 2 Saabs and a Spanish registered BMW.All of them are getting on a bit now so I am just going to keep them as they are till they die and then replace with  a more modern second hand model.Wouldnt buy something new down here as I bought a brand new 5.0 Ford Mustang and it was always getting damaged and vandalised...🙁

Blimey that’s terrible 😷 

Mind you you will be ok now with the Saab lol 

Surely not many people would key a Saab . 

Tell u what you could do , see if u steal the indicators off the Saab’s and graft em onto the bmw , 

You could be onto a new craze 😂😂😂😂😂
