can anyone suggest a place in south dublin where i can get an swap my non-charging alternator for a reconditioned one? i used to go to a guy in Donnybrook but he's gone. mindful that i need the car for a bit of a drive friday, a swap is essential as opposed to a "leave in and repair" scheme.

their is a guy in Rocky Valley, Kilmac that repairs starters and alternators
I'll go see if I can get a number for you,
He's mini sympathetic too


*Edit*
can't find him but found these guys - http://www.goldenpages.ie/ms/ms/alcor-a ... 5519f07fec
could be worth a punt,

failing that, I'm sure somebody might have a spare that they can bring along, shouldn't take long to fit

There's a place in Phibsboro, next to the Broadstone red gates that repairs/exchanges alternators.
Can't think of the name but maybe a Google search would find it...
