depends on what needs doing (how long is a piece of string so to speek) when similar happened mine upon removal bolts broke needing drilling and tapping, mount panels were rotten away, bolts in the kit i bought had the threaded end too short, holes wouldn't line up... if they have trouble mate they'll make you pay unfortunately.

sorry to hear what happened all the same and hope ye get her back on the road soon :)

Sam,

Do you have access to a trailer? Johnny Murphy (club member) would be able to change the subframe quickly and wouldn't be expensive.

Give me a buzz at the number below today sometime. I'm in Midleton all day.
