   How much do you reckon a garage will garage to weld a backbox on?

   If you supply the backbox, maybe £30.
   Depends if they just charge an hours labour or if it's just a quick weld job

   Depends really is it a straight on weld or does it involve a bit of fabricating?
   
   ive welded a few at my garage and sometimes we do them for free if it only takes a few mins other times if it take longer they charge around 10 - 20 pound all depends on what needs welding and how long it would take

   That really has nothing to do with the cost of labour and materials for custom work. Takes all of two minutes of spannering with a standard fitment!
