Splits can be done, a bloke near me used to do them quite cheap, BUT most refurbers won't touch them and those that did charged quite a bit, things may have moved on since I had mine done though

Are you sure there even proper splits ?, 2 piece are easier than 3

From my experience not many people like doing splits, labour intensive so the price is quite high.  May be able to use that as a bargining tool  :happy2:

Good luck
