[cliobon]

hey people, i got some springs here, and was wondering what the cost is normally around for a garage to fit these springs on my car? any ideas

thanks

fit them yourself! its easy

but i would say about an hours labour to get a garage to fit them.

yeah really easy to fit.... just need some spring clamps to remove embarresment factor

i fitted my springs my self because there pretty easy but then its the torsion bar which is a pain, this cost me £80 but most garages would do this if they know what there doing! springs to fit by a garage probly around £40-£60 as garages are expensive and like to rip people off!!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the Clio (Phase 2 anyway) has a torsion bar - hence the rear springs.

Like everyone said, fairly striaght forward, especially the rears. I'd agree with Fubar that you'd be looking at an hours labour, which isn't too bad if you can't be arsed to do it yourself.

Yes, with the right tools.
None of this cheap Woolworths stuff hey

yeah i phoned up topgear and they said it would cost around 80 pound taking about 2 hours, abit of a rip off init. i would fit it myself, but i dont have any tools and im not car mechanic. dont really trust myself lol.

anyone from hertfordshire wanna come and fit them on for me. lol. or anyone know any decent car garages near by. preferably hatfield.

so you lot think around 40 - 60 quid on an hour job sounds about right?

I'd say more like 2 hours to do but I take my time.

Any more than £40 is a bit steap though unless there doing the tracking as well.
