Hi,

Can you guy's recommend me a main dealer in central Scotland. I'm based in Dunfermline so I guess it's either Cupar, Falkirk or Perth. Who has the best name as far as workshop goes. I'm not looking to name and shame as I think there are a couple of guy's on the forum that work for these garages, but I was severely ripped off by a garage a few years back so I am very cautious when it comes to getting repairs done on my cars. Too many cowboys that are looking to make a quick buck!

Specifically I am looking to get my radio lock out sorted on my MY00 classic. Its happening too often both where I go shopping and at work. Has anyone had this done by a dealer before? If so how much did it cost? I've heard that it is around £100-£150. Also told by someone that the whole dash has to come out, but others have said that it is only the lower trim from the under the steering wheel, hench my first question asking who the most honest dealer is.

Thanks in advance for the replys.

Regards

Scott

I was thinking you meant your car stereo was locking out. £100 would have got you a head unit.

But if it's your alarm then there is a fix available. It's a veridium plate they install, but I'm not sure where it goes. I always thought it was the wheel arch.

Gav aka Scoobyseller works for Ian Grieve in Falkirk and Russ aka Mako works for John R. Weir in Perth. Both are fine upstanding gentlemen who are always a credit to their dealers, and the club.

I've never used either dealer, so can't comment about the workshops.
