Good spot light installer North Vancouver?

Hi I'm looking for someone who can install some fog/spot lights on my L300 and repair/replace a rusted front signal light.

Any recommends? North Van or Squamish ideal, but open to anyone in Lower Main.

Thanks

Re: Bull Bar paint job prep.

They have a big booth for larger things that they will blast for you.

They're still holding up strong and look great... same goes for the EZ liner, I've gained a few more rock chips in my body paint on the front but the Plastic EZ linered part on the front doesn't have a single blemish.

Re: Bull Bar paint job prep.

Well took them to John at U-Blast and he convinced me to have them powdercoated over at Hi-Pro around the corner from U-Blast... So I guess they're going to look awesome and I'm not going to get shouted at off the wife for messing them up... Having said that I've done some tests on the plastic with ...

Re: Bull Bar paint job prep.

Ah cool, Thanks... I'd Googled blasting and came up with Langley U-Blast, sounds like a plan! :) I was also considering a whole paint job with Rustoleum/Tremclad after seeing a few videos online... is it a good idea? rollers or spray? It doesn't need to look amazingly glassy just needs to be practic...

Bull Bar paint job prep.

I'm at the point where I really need to sort out the rust spots on my Bull bars, I think I'm going to try the Rustoleum/Tremclad treatment, but should I take the bars to get sand blasted for a lasting job? and is there anywhere you can recommend on the North Shore/Vancouver that will do this? Thanks...

Re: Air rattle noise at 100kph.. driving me mad trying to fi

Just try pulling them out, they're just above the headlights a strip of rubber glued on to the top of the headlights about 10 in inch by 1 inch... mine was unstuck cos of the age of the glue no doubt flapping about, which caused the noise. But they just pulled out easily... if its not that and you'r...

Whowa an unexpected fix right there.. Cheers fexlboi for the idea and nvanadm for the kick up the ass to try something I really didn't think would be the problem.. those damn two little 10inch strips of rubber seem to be capable of ventriloquism and sound like one angry wasp going back and forth und...

The noise is definitely coming from somewhere under the dash... its seemed to have rested for a bit right under the dials.. very much sounds like a leaf in the vents.. but I've taken that whole thing off and theres nothing in the airways, arrggg ;)

Air rattle noise at 100kph.. driving me mad trying to find.

My Deli has developed a very annoying air rattle noise coming from under the dashboard somewhere.. it happens at 100kpm or around 80 with a head wind.... I've had the dashboard of twice and can find nothing, the weird thing about it is that the vent switches or fan makes no difference to the noise w...

Re: Bike Rack on the front push bar

I wouldn't dig too deep, you'll find that most things we all do are technically illegal, and not just when it comes to the road.

Thanks for all the info though...

Re: Bike Rack on the front push bar

Cheers for all the anecdotes, all pretty much makes sense. Particularly the "when it suits" rules that everyone breaks anyway, I don't think I've seen many rear bike racks where I can also clearly see the licence plate, but that's the way it is I supose. I don't often see trailers with lig...
