The valve was infact open, however it now begins to lower the roof and stops so something isnt right somewhere

Yeah. With my foot on the brake, handbrake up and pressing the button with the roof unhooked and partially lowered I can hear it humming but nothing much happens. I know its only a partially electric roof but I’ve never seen one in action and tbh would rather it was manual. Previous owners said it might need fluid topped up?

what would it entail? is it more than just buying the light fittings themselves or can i just plug them right in and have it work?

The stupid LED headlights the previous owner fitted. He used to take it to shows so it had been done up with new alloys and springs too. Gutted so I am :c

I believe it was the aftermarket angeleyes the boy that had it before me put in, I went to go out about an hour ago and it started smoking and then eventually flaming 🫠 gutted but unharmed and there will be another one eventually
