Default Rocker Cover Gasket in Chertsey area?

Can anyone recommend me a place that is located close (ish) to jnc 11 of the M25 to take my 95 WRX to so I can get the rocker cover gasket replaced ?

If not then how about a list of all parts required and I will maybe attempt the job myself ?

PM me with any details..

Cheers all...

Heathrow area will do also. I have the parts but when I tried to do the job there was not enough clearance to get the spark plug cover bolt off ? Does the engine need raising or am I missing something really obvious? It is for a 1995 WRX..

Someone please help me ?!?!

cheers

ok thanks for the reply but I cannot see how the bolt will come out as it touches the body of the car before it is fully out. I'm now going to plead for anyone in the Heathrow to help recommend me a garage to take this too so it can get done cos the amount of oil coming out is getting worse..

I realise now that I am far too incompetent with engines to even attempt this.
