Hahahaha, and the worst part is, the client is actually kinda nice, his parents were total asshats though, but given the situation I will give them a pass, as per his dad - its literally broken promises over broken promises over broken promises lolol | Car edge on YouTube teaches people to talk out-the-door price with the salesperson because any financing and how its actually paid is up to the discussions with financing department....or else it's a game of monthly payment that meets the customer budget and forgetting about how the dealer just makes it paid over 20 years.
Don't make promises you can't keep. You're kind of stuck in the middle, but you'll have better experience if you stop promising things you have no control over.

Don't make promises you can't keep. You're kind of stuck in the middle, but you'll have better experience if you stop promising things you have no control over. | Mostly true for an audience that needs that sort of guidance.
I shop leases so the specific payment is what I’m actually after. For example, C class leases are so incentivized & have higher residual clause that they’re often cheaper than CLA.

Like $80 a pair, and they are way brighter and whiter. Look for the ones that are made compact to fit exactly like a halogen bulb so the dust covers can go back on, and that place the light source in the right location so the beam pattern isn't F'd. I think you guys will be pretty happy with the results.
