Hey ho, I knew the project would escalate, but will need 3-4 roof lights I'd guess, so not a cheap requirement.

Why the need for roof lights? My garage/workshop doesn't have any natural light - apart from when I open the doors. It does have high level 'daylight' led strip lighting that, in my opinion, is much more user friendly than natural light for working under.

Good news btw on the planning etc👍
