    i am thinking about delocking my saxo which i understand would require welding, filling then painting.
    but if i was to get it done i would also get my rear washer jet done too and maybe my ariel.

    would it be possible to get one of those interior ariels that go inside your windscreen??

    and how much would it cost to get all of the work done?

    More expensive for the silver apparently mate, ive had a few quotes and theyve all said that because its silver loads of panels around the work need to be sprayed to get it to match. Whether its bullshit or not i dunno but ive been gettin some crazy quotes

    Ariel- Yes, go to halfrauds. Although like me you might not need one, my ariel never used to work when i had the antenna, that was with the standard one and a bee sting one. As soon as i smoothed it off it works.. weird. Anyway if it dosent you can get them to go inside your car. They usually sit behind the rear view or you could put it in the headlining.

    de-locking i'd say 200 - 300 is a decent price, ariel is another panel that needs a full respray so add another 50-100 if there doing it all at the same time i'd imagine. No point in getting your rear jet done as there going to have to re-spray a majority of the boot, bit pointless for something so little.. i had mine done when i had de-badgeing/spoiler removal done.
