    Sounds like a good price to me. I haven't had an panel work done in 10 by a pro but I'd pay that.

    What's a full closed door worth these days? Twice that I assume?

    Replaced 2 of my keys today...was not only the broken rubber buttons that wear out but I broke the physical boot release button.
    Replacing them was pretty easy though...Holden wanted 420 dollars for 2 keys.
    I went to supercheap and repco for the parts. Cost about 2 hundred for 2 keys and I still have one more burn on the programming unit for one more
    key.

    Bit of an update coming on Friday. I was originally going to put a set of brembo's on the car but my mechanic talked me out of it. Sort of thankful in a way. Beautiful brakes but I can spend the extra money saved, elsewhere. So I've been waiting a few weeks for these to arrive. Just stock calipers but fully rebuilt and obviously red. I have 4 new RDA slotted and dimpled rotors going on and new pads.
    It should tidy up behind my wheels quite nicely.

    I like key reader clip....got spare blank & reader with car I bought just never bothered to try it after other yt clips made it annoying to understand.

    Yours was quite simple & easiest to follow that I've seen.

    vz ssz utes & other cars got spacer bracket for the calipers to run larger front discs.
