Hi guys i need to weld some bits to my corsa, its showing a few holes on the sills and on the rear inner arches..

Im guessing you would be able to tack, weld patches over the holes ?

Any idea how much id roughly be looking to have a few things welded ?

Cheers

Most garages won't even get the welder out for less than £50

Ah cool, so depends on how much welding required then, but surely a few patches here and there shouldnt be too much.

probably about £100 - £150 depending on the amount to be done and if the bits are easy to get to, id do it but your a bit far away
