Ordered oil pressure gauge pipe along with push/pull bowden cable. Delivery was prompt and packaging was secure. Bowden cable did the job well, oil pressure gauge pipe not fitted yet but looks as if it will work with no issues at all

The service was good in that I got advice on the part I required and the part itself, however the chat room directed me to a Web site which asked me to continue on a link which wasn't shown and I had to go back and forth before getting info on the part. As I said the end result was good but, the chat room experience was difficult.

Thanks for asking, both jobs installing the indicator speaker were quite easy ., one fitted in Vauxhall velox one in Daimler. Stag ok I think... need to check. But yes, exactly what I was looking for and fast dispatch thanks. Hopefully no more nagging comments, 'your indicators are still on '

Well CBS don’t “ hang” around. Within 36 hrs of ordering the hangers are on the car.. Don’t get better than that. Superb service with quality items. Oh, did I mention… There quite nice people to talk to. 👍

I bought a cheap brake flare tool on Amazon that looked the same but it simply was poorly sized so the hole was too small and nipped the sides of the copper/nickel pipe. The one from Car builder was exactly as it should be. Their service was superb and the tool was spot on giving a perfect flare.

The catalogue seems a lot bigger than back in 2010 when I built my Caterham 7. I do have something in mind but it will take me a time to decide exactly what to do.

The switch arrived quickly and was well packaged. The following day it was placed on the miniature railway locomotive and the horn now sounds in both Hi and Low [ Dee daa] the railway is now back to normal and everyone is smiling. Thanks

Brilliant service, I accidentally ordered the wrong size to begin with, but they were more than happy to exchange it, really fast service, good quality items, such a pleasure to deal with, will be using this company in future. Really pleased and impressed.

Needed a new M3 mandrel as I had wrongly set the stop, damaging the thread on the supplied one. Perfect replacement which came within two days allowing me to get on with repairing the gear box tunnel on my Morgan.

Unfortunately, the first parcel of two batteries got lost in the post by Royal Mail. However, after a reasonable delay to see if Royal Mail would eventually deliver it, I contacted Car Builder Solutions who sent me a replacement parcel by next day delivery. I couldn't ask for more!

I was very surprised to find that a part like this was available, and to be able to order it without having to order a whole handbrake cable! Thank you so much for your speedy response and excellent pricing, will be back for more now I know you exist.

The fuse box is very good and easy to install. Shame the first one got lost in the post. However the customer service I received was very good and a replacement arrived two days later. I will use them again.

The part does exactly what is says in the catalogue. No surprise there , what does make the real difference is the level of service I get consistently from Car Builder Solutions , and I recommend them to other car builders that I meet .

Had to solder on one new end tab as the one supplied only had a M8 size hole and needed a M10 and there were no ready made like that, otherwise it did the job.

When these arrived i was pleasantly surprised by there sturdiness. I was recommended these as they have curved glass to give a larger field of view and they are very nice.

Great product! better than keep undoing and doing up your battery terminals, bought one for my 1968 Mustang that I'm doing up a couple of years ago, my son has mothballed his JCW Mini so bought this one so that we could turn over the engine every few weeks or so.

This is the best foot pump. The gauge is accurate and it inflates quickly even though it’s a bit of a workout. The price was excellent and delivery was very fast.

Can’t send pic as is now located under the car. Very satisfied, as the clip is 100% stainless steel. The last bracket I used was stainless steel except for the fastening bolt which was heavily corroded.

I purchased catalogue as I find it easier to browse than using a web page. Well laid out with extra information which is helpful for a non experienced amateur. Let's hope the restoration work is completed swiftly.

The lamps are a good price , robust and are very bright , they are used on my Sidecar Outfit which is used off road . Spot lamps are a bit prone to getting broken , hence I bought two as replacements , good kit.

Surprisingly easy to fit, although threading the ties in between the radiator vanes felt a bit counter intuitive! Not sure how easy it would be to remove, but hopefully that will never arise...

What I really like about these is that they are small and unobtrusive. Furthermore they illuminate the parcel shelf on my car beautifully without being so bright as to dazzle the passengers. Would recommend.

Does the job as a neat radiator overflow expansion bottle easy to install and looks like original equipment, made in Taiwan though, pity we can't use British but then I suppose it would cost twice as much.

Look brilliant-literally, so shiny and bright. Nice nipples but unfortunately I can’t use as they are too short for my application. I will obviously keep them as they may come in handy in the future.

If it would have fit on my boats fuel tank. I would have been teal happy with the purchase. Because it has a wire in the hose, it won't stretch. Measurements must be accurate.
