Hi all.

I'm thinking of purchasing a set of avo lowering springs from motorsportworld.co.uk for approx £110 inc P&P.

However, the cheapest fitting quote I can find so far is £117, exceeding the price of the actual springs themselves!!

Anyone got any ideas or is this just a normal fitting charge??

That seems a fairly standard price, possibly could get it a bit cheaper though, but they're really easy to fit yourself to be honest.

I thought you needed spring compressor etc??
I'm very mechanically minded so if it's a diy job I'll buy the springs first thing tomorrow and do it myself

 

[Gordy]

My avos were £100 and fitting was about £60!

 

[mgman]

Some spring compressers, tools, and about half a day spare, easy peasy. Best do it soon before the winter coms in

 

[adsz]

my avo springs were £122 delivered direct from AVO and £82 for fitting!

 

[ZRVic]

Springs cost me £110!!

Fitting was £80

 

[liamspiers]

Same as Gordy

£160 all in from MMV Performance in Stirling.

My advice is to go down the local Humphries and get chatting to the lads, I got them to fit mine in between jobs and only cost me £60 cash in hand :wink: Don't pay more then £20 a wheel as its an easy job.

 

[Andy K]

Paid £115 for the springs and £80 to fit by the dealer........they also agreed to uphold the warranty :mrsmiley:

 

[ted]

did you get zed fixed

As said above, £15-£20 a corner is about right, or do what I did and find out one of your mates works for MG.... £10 a corner, yes please!
