What you have to realise is that when we do adaptations at the dealers they are on brand new cars , and when you weigh up the risk of taking them for a spin against what you earn ie $300 for fitting them, against say a stone chip in the front screen or worse the paint it's not worth it . We get a lot of work because we go to the dealers to do the job eradicating the risk of them having to drive it to our workshop for the work to be done . They like us have to weigh up the risk factors as well . You have to think how busy London and the South East is and the state of the roads, with just sheer volume of traffic to see the reasoning behind it .
