This stuff is super. So much better than water based coolants, high boiling point, very low freezing point so no anti-freeze required, and it is non-corrosive. Perfect. Well worth the money.

Customer photo review of IVA Rocker Switch Side/Head Lights
John W.Verified
Used these switches before on my Westfield . The old one was still working fine, but its internal light had stopped working. It was eleven years old. Not bad.

It wasn’t the right size clamp for the radiator. However, I contacted customer support they provided me a free replacement of the item which it fits perfectly!! Great service from Car Builders Solutions:))) Will be making more purchases in the future from here highly recommended🤩🤩🤩

Great replacement for a cheap plastic brake light switch that was fitted initially, pay a little more for this one that will last much longer. Good quality and easy to fit.

Les I.Verified
The clips were to replace those which hold a panel at the front and below the radiator upon which the oil cooler is mounted. I would have like the clips to be a little thicker gauge stainless steel but were great in all other aspects and good value for money.

I used the cable to replace the warm air heater cable on a vw T4 2.5tdi, far better than the original volkswagen item

Absolutely mind blowing service. I live in Victoria Australia and it only took 4 days for the parts to arrive. Seriously takes longer to get stuff out of Melbourne and that’s only 250klms down the road. Product is as stated on the website. I haven’t fitted it up yet but I’m sure as shit that there will be NO issues. Thanks CarBuilders keep it stiff.

It was good to get proper copper fuses from a british supplier rather than having to await a delivery from Australia. These fuses are less likely to suffer heavy corrosion due to dissimilar metals reaction than the common aluminium ones.

Looks magnificent, much better than my old Brass rad, more cooling fins better quality, just all round excellent, haven't fitted it yet but with the mountings for the fan already on the radiator its make life easier so looking forwards to fitting it

Fitted to two P6 Rovers, look fantastic and very bright, easy to fit used a relay to safe guard the old wiring. For the price these are well worth the money, would recommend

Always great service from your company: prompt delivery to the US and parts as described. Also, a huge thanks as a couple years ago you pointed me to an obscure vintage styled fiberglass sports car body which I'd been trying to track down (Formosa). The current build is going well.

Not yet fitted but looks good and I'm happy that they'll work in the project better than any OEM parts I might have found, as these are very regular in form where OEM items are quite irregular...

I needed 2 interior lights that looked factory supplied because my original ones in my Lotus Excel were rusted beyond repair so looking through the car builders website and found the perfect item, and almost identical size, I’m so pleased that’s another problem ticked of my list,

Just what I needed for my Caterham seven , have used before and is still working replacing the original one. This is a spare for the boot kit. Quick delivery and good price
Mechanical Stop Light Switch 55mm
John K.Verified
Perfect for gripping fragile items in a vice and for working with, for example aluminium, to avoid marking the surface with the steel vice faces. So much better than using strips of cardboard or cloth to avoid damaging the items being worked. The first pair have had a couple of year's abuse and I decided to get a pair for my second vice.

I replaced a rusty metal canister on my serie II SWB Land Rover. Their replacement part costs at least 3 times as much!

Everything about this purchase was first class, from the product, price and speed of delivery. It makes an ideal boot light for my Toyota Aygo which did not have one. Well done Car Builder Solutions.

I tried making some brake pipes up using one of the cheaper style tools where you use a clamp and a small die that pulls into the tube and never got central flared ends. They were always distorted. So I bought this hand held tool where you screw the former into the tool. Easy, v simple and quick with perfect ends every time. Don't waste your time on the cheap stuff. This tool is not expensive and I recommend it.

This replacement aerial was exactly what I was looking for. Great service from Car Builder Solutions, providing a very quick delivery from the time I placed the order. Good value for money. Very pleased with my purchase and I would certainly buy from them again (and recommend others to do the same!)

I have used Car builder solutions several times and they and their service have been excellent, however this time my part was not delivered next day by PDP and was delayed till a few days later. This was not CBS fault but the couriers and I was promptly refunded my delivery charge, the part was delivered a few days later. Will definitely use again.

I needed the Silicone Brake fluid quickly as I had a hydraulic clutch to repair urgently. I was very disappointed by the price and the fact that tax was not included on the original page, it came in at the end. I have had excellent service from you in the past but this overall price was disappointing. DR

I want an easy drain option for a rad that has no drain tap. I will fit this into the bottom hose and fit an end cap for easy draining saving hassle and mess. This set is perfect for the job. Of course I have to drain it all down first........

Bought a cheap switch from ebay that went straight into the bin, paid a bit more from yourselves and could see a quality item straight away. Would use you so much more if the p&p were cheaper.

Excellent solution to being able to finely control the temperature of the cooling system. Nice quality, works very well with an electric fan and electric water pump in tandem. I did use a heavy duty relay activated by the temperature control unit to switch the load of fan and pump as I felt it was good practice not to rely on the controller's contacts. This is the second vehicle which I have used this unit on, the first vehicle has been in use with the controller for a number of years with no i...

Not used in a car but as switch for shower drain pump on a boat. It is a perfect replacement for the original switch fitted 36 years ago. Minor adjustment of the terminals enable a straightforward fit - it looks identical to the original!

Have bought exhaust rubbers for my Scimitar from make specific suppliers in the past only for them to fail within three months. Fitted the ones from Car Builders two years ago and still going strong. Much better quality.

Great way to distribute power from a single power feed. I used one of these for ignition supplied circuits and a second one for non iginition (permanent feed ) circuits an a classic car which originally only had 3 fuses.

This was perfect for my application. I have a 1935 Chevy Master Deluxe I am putting back on the road. I needed to replace the fuel tank and filler neck with after market parts and I was unable to find a usable filler neck hose until I found this one from Car Builders Solutions. It is flexible and sturdy to handle the compound curves I needed to connect the filler neck to the tank.

I required an old school flasher unit as the electronic one fitted to my 90 year old car was getting interference from the HT leads / coil resulting in a weird flash pattern. This little unit solved the problem.
