wil most body shops fit the solenoid if you ask?

when i had my alarm fitted it was £30 to have the boot solenoid done and sextons were trying to charge about £150 i think :s

I paid £440ish to have my boot smoothed thats a bloody good price, although mine included taking the number plate light out the bumper too

is the boot pop solenoid the one which opens the boot at the push of a button?

it wont cost £150 too paint adn smooth

£200 sounds a good price mate - especilly if that includes fitting the boot pop solenoid - The bodyshop I use charges £350 - but tht includes reloctuing a plate recess into the rear bumper and the solenoid etc

The panels are only £50 - but still need spraying and smoothing in at the edges so will cost about the same

the smooth panels r only £50

is the boot pop kit the one to open up the boot with a button??? if so cant u get that put in at a later stage???

and i got quoted £200 to get my boot flushed, surely it should be cheaper than that, sounds like an easy straight forward job

no need too cut the lock offf it unbolts, they weld a plat in the recess and put a thin layer of fille ron top, orrrr u can buy a panel bond it on and its done :D well needs spraying (obv)

u will need a boot pop kit tho

yesh remove lock etc...then weld in a plate/lead fill and skim over with filler/fibreglass and spray

how is this done, do they just cut off the lock and weld in a plate??

is it a long winding job?

anyone know?
