    Where's the somewhere you won't be going back to (so I/we can avoid it too)? Or are you not saying or purpose?

    Yo mate! email the spares manager and let him know when you're coming through and see what sort of demon deal he can do for you.

    I went to Trevor Pierce Yamaha looking for a new used yz250f and they were out of used bikes, but he went well out of his way to help me find a bike from another shop. he told me to go to Tracktion where i bought a kx250f. they even got a new rear guard for me as the other one had a crack in it
    excellent customer service from both shops.
    i went to a motorbike store on marshlands road and they weren't help at all. they wouldn't let me lay-by a bike at $500-600 per week and when i asked if they knew any other motorbike stores they didn't want to know about it.

    Because we reckon a few years is enough.

    Auto Electrical in Auckland

    Had the family in the car 9:30 last night coming to Auckland from Whitianga and my headlights, low and high, went out midway between Hikuai and Kopu. Checked all fuses etc then called AA. Mechanic arrived pretty quickly and checked all fuses etc with no joy and decided that the switch on the indicator arm must be stuffed. He jury rigged a wire from Alternator to give me one low beam headlight and I got home near midnight.

    Called Mitsubishi today to check cost of switch/indicator stalk: $500 for the combo(must get indicator and wiper stalk together, go figure!!) and it has to come from Australia.

    I called Wiri Automotive Electrical Ltd after looking at their website with the intention of getting them to check it and rig me up some switches on the dash because the cars only worth $2000 and I wasn't going to spend $500 just to turn the lights on.

    Kevin told me to just bring the car over, they would check it out and if he couldn't fix it there and then they would rig something up so I could get by until it could be fixed properly.

    I turned up and one of the guys stopped what he was doing to check it out after I told him what the mechanic had done.

    He found a dodgy relay that had appeared to be working but wasn't completing the circuit, an easy miss in the dark at the side of the road. They ordered one in for me on a one hour courier. I went back later to collect it. Kevin plugged it in and checked the lights worked properly and $55 later I was on my way.

    Awesome to tell me to just call in, great that he said they would get me sorted one way or the other, I didn't have to go back next week to pick the relay up, he checked the problem was sorted, I expected to have to pay a couple of hundred if they had to put extra switches or a 2nd hand unit in and it was only $55 all up.

    I reckon I got a great deal from an honest business.

    They do ALL sorts of Automotive Electrical. They had a few cars there, a digger, a large Mobile home and they also do motorcycles.

    They are at 121 Plunket Ave, Manukau, just South of the new Motorway.

    Thumbs up

    +1 for Wiri Automotive Electrical, Kevin got a LED Relay in for me, when it arrived he checked that it would work on LED's he had in store, when i came back and told him it had not worked he said "no worries" and replaced the cost of the unit and sent it back to the manufacturer.Telling them it hadn't done the job advertised.
    Takes a while to find good auto sparkies and yes this was on a bike.
    Every day above ground is a good day!:

    Another for Cyclespot - I went there the other day, with "issues" which was in fact, a stupid retard moment on my part. They didn't laugh at me (behind my back wouldn't matter cos I won't see it) Very patient and helpful guys.
