Ordered a Wheel bearing off GFS £18.60+VAT and getting it fitted for £25.

Is that a good deal for fitting?

thats a bargain!

ive having both my fronts changed tomorrow, i sourced the parts myself, £60ish for both, which are VW parts

and then labour fitting them, which ive yet to see but know the bloke who owns the garage who is doing it, so shouldnt be bad :)

was going to do them myself, but there a pain without the right tools ive heard.
