I'm quite happy with the way the golf lights up to be honest. But depending on your prices I may know someone that wants a car doing

its easy enough to remove the bits from the car, the hard part is dismantling them to expose the circuit board

I definitely want my clocks done white. Let me know when we could arrange this. Do I need to post my clocks to you or come to you?
