Seen too many ****ing bodgy disasters from second stage manufacturers, cut on shut on wiring looms that cause problems etc.

Then there's the issue with the replacement parts, good luck trying to find replacement parts for a conversion car.
Agree it can be hit and miss, some are reasonable, but some are terrible.

Im less afraid as I can weld and wire , and was a dealership tech that worked on euro stuff ... but you make a good point that people should approach with caution.

Most of the time you cant see how things have been done until you have a chance to inspect things really closely, including up on a lift.. and under the dash also.

At least the mob who did this 'stang in question are still around, perhaps a sign that they do a decent job. So many from the 90s and 00's have dropped off the face of the earth.
