I have been with Flux for a few years,
they were one of the few who knew what a bobtail was.
I always ring around for a better quote on renewal, the last few times I have got them to pricematch, last week from £280 to £215, the modded disco is only £150,
apart from one mix up,(dont think many customers have more than one of the same car) its all been ok.
as said its mainly time, not skill you are paying for,
I know there is a bit of skill in welding, but with a bit of practice its not too hard,
I did the cills on my Range Rover the other year, it took me a full weekend, I guess with breaks etc about 10 hours total, so if the garage charge £30+ per hour??
for that sort of money you could buy a Mig or Im sure someone on here will offer to do the work, if you gave a location?
Mine literally is a one finger job,
it pulls out so easily and fast, i am still so pleased with it, after the ramsey died,
I would check that its mounted flat as said.
