I said I brought a wheel off ebay like that for £35, then I donated it to a charity auction, where Skinny on here brought it, if you want to know more about fitting ask him.

As for if its too expensive, an item is worth what someone is willing to pay for it

Here is an instruction guide. Its a pain in the ****!

I thought about doing it for a while. But the labour is 3.5 hours at a dealer and it is quite extensive to do yourself. You will see on ebay that the wheels without mf actually go for a lot more!
