How Much to Have Eibachs Fitted??
- Thread starter DebV6
- Start date
LY V6 with Recaros
I wouldn't even like to try and fit them myself! I might just wait and get Mark Fish to do it, although getting someone to do it for me then getting it tracked after sounds like the cheaper option! Any offers??
I thought £115 was a pretty good price for the springs too, isn't that similar to the group buy price? Just didn't think the fitting of them would cost more than the springs themselves lol!

It does! I think I remember reading that you or someone was quoted £55 in the group buy thread, which is why the amount I got quoted shocked me a bit, was expecting it to be the same price roughly!

Seems a lot of money to fit them to tbh.
I fitted mine and was fairly easy. And that was just with a jack and 2 stands.
I dont think Debs would be interested in fitting them herself as at times it requires a bit of brut force, especially without spring compressors.
Also, getting the strut nut off without an impact wrench can be interesting.
I would phone up a few more local garages and ask for quotes as im sure you could get it cheaper. Id charge 10% of that price lol

Was a 197
as seen as u work at a garage deb, gives one of the mechanics a back hander. if u were confident in doing this then do it yourself.
just fitted eibachs to my motor, took abt 2hrs to do front (i got the spring clamps on one of springs stuck for abt 1hr of that) and 30mins to do back, not bad for doing something for the first time.

Whaaaaaaaaat?! Thats outrageous debs.
I paid £60 for fitting, and humphries/ kwik fit will check your tracking for free (doesnt need doing for around 3 weeks after spring fitting, as they need time to settle)
Upon checking, my tracking was still spot on, so didnt need to pay for it. Would have been £25 otherwise though.
Dont get the tracking done at same time as the springs though mate, which seems like what theyre trying to offer you.

That's where I went!

I could get the garage at work to do it for me, but I'm always getting them to do stuff to my car, I feel a bit bad lol! Also, they fitted my exhaust and I'm not overly impressed with the fitting of it, I'm still waiting for them to adjust it as it's wonky and bangs on my bumper! But I guess just fitting the springs they'll be ok.
