Got to put standard springs back on :(

[Darius]

My clio has been lowered 60mm on springs but unfortunately due to insurance costs for a 17 year old the standard springs have got to go back on, luckily the previous owner gave me the springs. How hard is it to put them on and how much can I expect to pay a garage to do it for me? Bearing in mind they will also be carrying out an MOT for me at the same time.

Thanks

Usually about £30-40 per side,

Depends on the garage.
Rears take 30mins, front are longer to do but shouldn't be long.

​Also you have a great username.

Gotcha... thought that might be the case!!!

 

[Darius]

Anyone in the cov area want to earn some penny's and do this for me?

 

[Chri5]

The rears really are easy, you only need to undo 1 bolt per side after jacking it up! would save on garage costs a bit

Looking at your location, I'm tempted to lower mine now at that price as I'm only down the road!

 

[Pep]

Just drop me a pm if you decide to dude.

 

[ThomasBrentnall]

Okay I will do, cheers mate

[Edges]

I'd do them for you mate, I'm in Lutterworth!!

 

[Chrisgti6]

Fingers crossed you don't crash after putting them back on. Void insurance isn't going to do you many favours!

 

[Darius]

I'd do them for you mate, I'm in Lutterworth!!

How much pal?

 

[Edges]

£40 seems normal so I'll say £35?
