Anyone in Surrey/Sussex can help fit MINI parts?

Hello all,

Just wondering if anyone knows of anybody in the Surrey/Sussex area that will fit mini parts, as I'm probably getting some bits from various sources, cheaper than from mini (not difficult really!). I know I can go to anyone really and get them fitted, but a mini specialist, or a recommendation is always comforting!

Thanks guys,

James.

Retitled your thread so you might get some responses, the previous title was very vague, especially for a large international forum.

i haven't used them and they don't seem to be mentioned on here much but Minispeed are in Byfleet. As far as I know they are the closest mini specialist to us

What parts do you need fitting?

I'm based in Farnborough and don't mind lending a hand...

spot lamps, and a new steering wheel, that's the tricky one, but will need help with the lights too!

Steering wheel is an easy one

Two small torx bolts, and one large 17mm bolt securing to the column

Just remember to disconnect the neutral to the battery first, or you'll get an airbag light come on when you fe-fit.
