[928uk] Bit of an ohhh dear moment

[Paul]

Although the service from Steering Specialists in Wakefield was both fast
and cheap, I haven't yet driven the car with the rack back in

It's not an exchange unit, it's your rack refurbed and cost me £215
including shipping both ways

As I said I have no idea about the quality of the work, but I can't fault
them on speed or price

Beware the UJ coupler, it is a real PITA
