I've had a pair sitting in the garage for a few months, never had time to fit them myself.
Decided on my way home to call into AutoItalia in Meltham, they are only a few miles away from home so very convenient, they are fitting them next week.
My other choices would have been Milbrooke or Autoshield, both about 30 miles away, but not as easy to drop off at the moment.
Not sure about AutoItalia for servicing, but anyone any idea what I will end up paying for them to fit the Larini rear boxes. I've heard it's a couple of hours job?
Cheers

I worked with Tubi developing the first set of back boxes for my GranTurismo in 2008 and just used a good local garage, they charged £30 in 2008 and £40 in 2012. It only takes about 30 minutes (not sure if Larini's take longer).

I agree, had local garage fit mine stood there while they did just under an hour and charged £40 cash.

Should be no more than an hour even with a bit of cussin and things a bit stuck.....standard garage....£40 sounds ok...these aren't the valved type, no other hooking up and testing etc?

Fitted mine myself takes about an hour on a 2 post ramp.

larini ones are known on the 3200 for needing a little fettling to fit, thats probably due to the 3200s rather than larini though

Very easy to fit Larinis on the 4200 - so probably £130 at an indie? (2h @ £65). I fitted (and removed) mine on the Spyder. As others have said, it's apparently less easy on the 3200....though I haven't tried.

IIRC fitting time depends on how seized the difficult to get at side bolts are. Can be a real ball ache to get off.
