hi there,would like to know if it is fair to be charged 13 hours labour to fit 3 gauges in a pod in a sti type r,please can you discuss this matter
13 hours is way too much mate. |
Perhaps they quoted you that time/money so that it would put you off. Not all garages want to work with these types of car.
|
Feel free to reply to some of the posts in your thread F11 SYS.
It's the orange button at the bottom, marked 'post reply'.;) |
13 hours is ridiculous....
Thats over a day and a halfs labour for a garage. |
If I REALLY disliked someone I would offer to charge them at those rates...
LOL dunx P.S. Even fitting five took me all morning, but two are just "stuck" ontop of the dash board. |
it was power station that fitted the gauges,complete and utter rip offs!! 60 quid an hour plus vat. they machined a flanged,fixed a number plate bulb,swapped my brake discs around and changed brake fluid,fitted 3 gauges(oil temp,oil pressure,water temp) which i pre mounted into the pod but i didnt mount the pod to the dash board,i baught them the correct sandwich plate for these, the petrol cap needed a spring and my speedo wasnt working. they charged me £200 for parts including converter for the speedo,brake fluid,antifreeze,wires,plug and the grease on my ass when they raped me.23 half hours labour to do just this 5 hours work,they had the car for 2 weeks blaming the machineist,when i went to pick it up the speedo still wasnt working so had to leave it there and go back again,still wasnt fixed so just gave them a piece of my mind and came home with no money at all,skint,broke,robbed,raped,butchered etc etc worst of all im a **** for giving them the money!!!!!!!

Cheap gauges or not, if they came with wiring diagrams it should of been a piece of p1ss.
