Random life rants...

Two headlights purchased and installed - $350

Buy the two lights, do it yourself - $80

Buy the lights separate , get them installed - $100 ($180)

Yeah something doesn't add up Mr. Mechanic....

Sort:  

well, Mr Mechanic is a special cancer. It doesn’t matter the region. He is always pulling up quick ones.

Life regrets....I should have been a mechanic as a profession LOLOL

Hahahahha.. That one has hit me before countless times. But for selfish ambitions and how I would get away with any ride and make it bad ass.

I fixed my break lights yesterday and only punched my car one time. LOL. I stink at fixing my car but I hate paying the mechanics.

Yeah I would have done it myself but it's still -25 out here lol And working outside on my SUV just isn't something I would have enjoyed to do lol

he is charging $100 to install each headlight?

ha ha ha ha you would think. nope...literally, 170 dollar difference between buying the lights yourself (in the same store) or them doing everything.

Depending on the car there are some where you have to take out the front bumper, intake air box, brands like Mercedes and BMW love to do that, I hate those and you end up charging WAY more than any other car where you just take out a few screws and swap the headlight

Yeah I was replacing headlights all summer on semi-trucks. open the hood, take out the bulb and replace....these newer cars, you have to take the whole front end off lol
