Hi all,
My first post as a user of the site however been on here browsing for a fair while.
I live in the Huddersfield area and would like my Polo 6R 1.2tsi SEL lowering. I have the Eibach springs so literally need a man (or lady) to do the job with access to a ramp. The springs are a 25mm front and 30mm drop back.
I can pay £120 for your time in cash. Please let me know!

Welcome to the forum
Don't take it the wrong way but for £120 you could buy a decent (ish) trolley jack, a pair of axle stands, socket set and pair of spring compressors if you shop around
DIY and then you have the tools for next time you want to do any work on the car
It's not a hard job and you certainly don't need a ramp
Not quite the same job but kinda covers the basics

Hi,
Thank you for the DIY guide however I'm not a practical person in any sense of the word and I'd rather simply pay somebody to do it who's got experience. I'm not knocking people who do it themselves, however I'd rather not even attempt it or have the parts lying around for future cases. When it comes to cars I've a strong belief in anything mechanical being left to a mechanic or somebody who has done it before and has no trouble getting the job done.
As above, any takers? I can do weekends if that helps.

Mate,
I'm in exactly the same situation as you. Desperate to lower mine, getting the springs is fine but everywhere i've tried to get them fitted want around £200! Slighty freaked out by your post, as I'm in the same position and I also have the same car and i'm not too far from Hudds
I've even contemplated getting friendly with one of the technicians at a local VW dealer and arrange for some out-of-hours work for cash in hand but don't know how i'd go about it!
Let me know how you get on mate!
