Title: anyone able to fit coilovers near Glasgow/Denny for a decent price?
Post by: patrickcullen87 on July 22, 2011, 06:00:21 pm
as above looking to get my coilovers fitted, been to some local garages and half of them look at you funny when you even suggest coilovers so theres not a chance im going to trust them, as for the well known garages most of them are charging an arm and a leg :(

You tried Hypertech in Bonnybridge? Used to be Honda specialists but I'm sure they'd do it. You in Denny? Not seen another ed30 around here! I've got a red one

 This might be a stupid question but have you asked arnold clark or verve if you have an outstanding recall cause thats how i got mine done in april.
 Its worth a try other guys on here know what years  that are covered

Coil OVERS not Coil packs  :grin:

Try a4audi in Clydebank a bit far maybe but worth a phone call ask for Andy.

If that includes alignment afterwards, sounds reasonable?  :confused:

I stay in Head of Muir. I've seen the silver car, 09 plate ed30, seems a bit strange to be that age! I've got a red ed30 with anthracite wheels.

Back on topic, I doubt you'll get the springs fitted much cheaper unless somebody on here does it for beer money

Thats a good price TBH, I usally go to star performance in kircaldy they are £200 and that includes wheel alignment. There are no decent performance garages in the falkirk area IMO, ive used hypertech before and wasnt impressed.

that doesnt include the wheel alignment mate, purely just for fitting the coilovers then its extra to get them re-aligned.

Kenny Brown in Hillington?

Failing that there's not that many good garages up here! I always head to star if I need something done and its a 200 mile round trip  :rolleye:
