Installed the H-tech springs and took it to Vincent at motor workshop. I had to see for myself what the hype was all about in terms of service and such at this place. And just like how everyone feels on this board about motor workshop, Vincent and his workers did a great job. Excellent service . Bagged and boxed my stock springs and stored em in the trunk for me when i picked it up without me even mentioning it.

Can somebody post some contact info for this motor workshop. I take it Vincent is the contact? I\'ll probably go here b/c of the feedback a few of you have given once my h-techs arrive from the GB:D
How long did the install take?

So Vincent will install your springs for 120.00?

That\'s worth driving all the way from Orillia for,
since here they\'re asking 3x that much to have them done.

Is that the TM3 rate?

I\'m guessing it\'s extra for an alignment?

How many of you all had him do your springs, and were you happy?

I had them done by Vincent for $120 and I left his place as a very satisfied customer. I dropped off my car at 10am on a Friday and the springs were within an hour. Although he had a customer when I arrived, he still worked on my vehicle first as I had booked an appointment beforehand. His shop is pretty clean and I gotta say he was very professional. I definately suggest getting your springs installed here, unless it will be a pain for you to drive all the way to Markham from Orillia. hhehe :p
