Title: Trade Discount Rules
Post by: soopahfly on March 23, 2007, 13:24:13 PM
Went to Autovaux today in wakefield to get a new crank sensor and brake wear sensor.  Original prices were going to total at around £65 inc vat.



Because Im a Migweb member.....


£45.


Now I need to work out how those inverted torx bolts come out.

Being in a student-run motorsport team has its advantages.  Like my heavily discounted trade account with Rapid ;)

the one that was in was only fingertight. so I could match it up to a normal socket
