Hi, I don't do them myself, Bowser, who is a member on here, does them. Where are you as there are others around the country who also do them.

Ross ( bowser 134 ) is the man
If you live in South there is no-one better, he admits on Forum to be a Senior technician at a main Dealership ( so I can mention it :D )
and charges dependant on the depth of issue and what is required
Superb craftsman :driving:
