Living i a car loathing country sure sucks at times...
I was just given a quote of £1700 from the local dealership. I have previously been quoted £1200 from an independent generic shop. These are the only two shops willing to do this job within reach of me. The dealership admitted openly that the price was ridiculous, but said there was nothing that could be done. They did however allow me to bring the parts for them to install for a lowly £850. hmy:
Having exhausted my options I have come to the conclusion I will have to do this myself. I would like to be as prepared as possible so please post whatever helpful advice you may have such as cheapest place to buy tools/parts. If someone is willing to rent me the tools that would be even better of course.
Please refrain from trying to talk me out of doing this. There really is no better option available to me.
