atchi123 Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Hi Got some EBC redstuff from Brakes4U as the stealers quoted me something silly for OEM pads and fitting. Kwikfit initially said £60 to fit front and rear but when I called back they said they wouldn't fit customer parts, only there own. A local garage then qouted me £130 to fit! Is this right or can I get a better deal? Seems a bit steep... p.s. I know I could fit them myself but I;ve never done it before and am going on a 2k driving trip to France and want everything to be spot on Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Sounds expensive to me. I believe I have seen people on here paying around the £60-£70 mark or thereabouts. Afraid I can't help you with a place to go though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WoREoD Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Little garage in Pangbourne does mine - I ask to wait and like to see the old ones, etc. Sometimes a few days to get a slot ....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcash5 Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Why not do them yourself as then you will know everything is tight and a real sense of achievement, not some quikfit spanner monkey that is more bothered about making sure his arrangements for saturday night are in place rather than your brake pads which he fits about 20 sets a day Really not a difficult job loads of good guides knocking about aswell http://www.my350z.com/forum/showthread.php?t=58195 for eg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_b Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Try Bracknell tyres, they may do them not sure. I use them for tyres as cheapest. I think I know the one John uses as I got tracking done there. Very friendly give them a call.
