Dominator Headlights - more info As well as changing the bulbs I had to alter them internally with the aid of a Dremel because the beam 'ever so slightly' kicked up toward the offside. To clarify, I needed to rotate the bulbs slightly within the housing. Whilst the same result was achievable by tweaking the entire lamp assembly, the examiner wasn't happy as they have a marking on the lens which is supposed to be horizontal. Apparently. His argument was that somebody could at a later date note that the lamp wasn't 100% horizontal, straighten it and thus throw the beam off. We're talking a fraction of a degree here, but hey ho. I was able to sort it on the day quite easily.

Please can someone that's recently finished their build advise on the V5 / scrapping of the body please? I have photos of my body with the VIN on and after it has been removed. I have the V5
Can I go ahead and scrap the body or will scrappies need the V5 and then hence inform the DLVA that the car was crapeed (so no age related plate)
Cheers

Hi me again Phoned a local scrap yard as apposed to a car breaker they said they would take the body and not use the vin they would take it in as scrap iron not as a car BUT they will need to see vin / v5 as proof that you are the registered owner but will not keep v5 I'd still phone Dvla for clarification

Just ring around, you will find a scrap man to take the body without the V5, just make sure to cut off the VIN number from the front bulkhead of the chassis!

I am in process of a strip and have been trying to pre plan. My local scrap yard will take the body without vin as scrap metal as no decontamination required.. I.e fluids and tyres etc.

Not an issue for us. Basic IVA requirements for us. The link states:
"a private passenger vehicle with more than 8 passenger seats"
