Fill in a form, show them motor vehicle quals, mostly.
I recommend old clothes and oily hands if you want to be taken seriously.

Its a HNC. Just tell them you were paid off nik and you chucked oot your old wageslips etc but the cert. Is enough to say youre qualified.

I reckon Steve cocked it up and he's spent a night in the cells after being caught trying to impersonate a mechanic

You guys seriously forging qualifications to get Halfords cards? 
Walked in straight after work, suit and tie, couple of invoices, bit of chat, card received. The staff really aren't paid enough to give a fuck.

You must think halfords employ the same person for every shop.
Tbh i cant be arsed trying to bribe the staff because when you do come across one which obeys the rules then you will get no where.
What kind of invoices anyway semi chem?

Its the lack of(read none) invoices that is stopping me doing it that way.
So the next best thing would be forgery.
