Exclamation That is high

Paul

IMy wiring was just over $1500. I supplied all lights, gauges etc. etc.

It was a basic wiring only on a carby motor.

Guess you should talk with some people in the industry including Warrick.



Damn that sounds really high.

I would ask him to detail the account with:

Hours spent on the wiring job

Any addition costs, such as phone calls to suppliers etc.

Any additional parts used.

With parts I would ask for a detailed list of parts including, screw, clips, tape etc.

Lets see...

Say

$500 in bits

30 to 40 hours tops ( really tops) then he wants $175 per hour. Now my contractors get about $60 - 70 per hour tops.

Sounds like $4,000 added by mistake.

Perhaps John Cini may be able to assist here. Aussie Mike also.

Mate don't pay until you talk with these guys....

Do you have the Cobra or is he holding it.
