id say around the £150 mark. its only a small section to weld for the boot lock and wiper arm but you will probably have to have the whole boot blown in depending on the condition of the rest of the paint

could do it yourself, or get a mate to do it.

just remove the lock and put a solenoid in it so it can be opened from inside or keyfob etc. remove the wiper arm and motor if necessary.

then use filler for the wiper hole and best way is to weld a plate over the gap where the lock was, the use filler to get it flat.

then use a fine grit glass/sand paper and get it as smooth as possible then a bit of wet/dry paper (i think) to get it as smooth as possible.

Prime and spray and way hay smooth boot

I THINK THATS RIGHT NOT TOOO SURE

I daren't do it myself, i would rather pay to get someone to do it for me. My boot already opens from inside, so they won't need to do anything to that, so really there's not much to do to it.
