They arent too difficult to fit to be honest... although my mate fitted another make and not a B&M. It took him around 45mins.

^^^^^same here,done it to a vtr while bk and the only thing that took awhile was the fact that the car was so low that we had to park it on a high kerb (side ways) to fit it but dont take long if you know how to take every thing apart then its a snap

oh right nice one i'll give it a go today then

much diff once you fitted it?

Yes there is a noticable difference :)
