I had a look at foxys some time ago and thought its not the kind of job I'm
capable of doing.

At the cost of it I'm slowly thinking of giving it a try, getting quotes in
this morning and getting in at £220 to £250 for that kind of money I'd think
about giving it a try even as kak handed as I am.

I have had a couple of prices for fitting CC to my V5 mk4.
Both were around £200.

Called a few places heapest I found was £220 and 2-3 hours work. Waiting for
a couple of places to call me back.

Cheers for the post gives me an idea of what others have been priced at.

Must have a drive-by-wire accelerator (no cable between accelerator pedal
and throttle body)
