Strange guy on phone freaking out with service writer because of electrical issues of his own making. Seems he took out his instrument cluster and changed to different color bulbs (LEDs) so now he has problems with cluster. Those problems being it looks like it dropped its programming, warning lights on, information center issues, something with the body control module and others stuff thats not right. I’d bet the $350 beginning estimate makes him wish he had stuck with the factory lighting.

Notice any other tacky mods done to his car? Fake fender vents, scoops, wing, etc...?

Bet when he reinstalled it the bus/CAN wire(s) got pinched or shorted.

It was an over the phone estimate. Won’t know anything unless he shows up.
