I have some Apex springs that i want fitting to my Fiesta, but im just wondering if local garages will fit them? or do i need to go to a specialised suspension place? also, about how much would it cost to get them fitted?

thanks

I could fit them for you. Alternatively, a kwik fit will do :)

lol

I agree with your friend! Worst that can happen is the bolts that hold the shock in could snap!

Kwik Fit will do it no problem and will be liable if they break owt :)

yeah thats exactly what he said, because it happened to his fiesta and it cost him alot to get fixed. me being a student with a part time job would rather do without that extra cost lol.
