Some jobs just don't pay well you either decline it are suck it up its gonna eat your lunch.
Case in point. I put aftermarket towing mirrors on a ford truck and added front fog lamps and roof mounted spot lights. For such a simple job I had 2 plus days work in it. I had nothing to go by as far as where to mount parts and then as you say while you are there fix are clean up other issues.
He put ordering the parts on me I am not gonna spend my time and it turn out its something he doses not like. I ordered the switches and panel for the lights and the mirrors, he got the lights and wiring harness that I did not use. It was easier to make the harness, I had already ran a custom made harness for the roof lights.
What some deem as simple they forget you are tooled up and have the necessary supply's on hand to help move the job alone. That alone saves hours of time . I invested my time and money in my business I did it looking for a return in the investment.
I have always made good money on his other work, he pays well and returns for more. All I can say is I hope he sees it as value added to the service.
I will add I would like a nice set of towing mirrors for my truck as his was the same truck. I got paid a bit to experiment on his truck : ).
