Where can I get side mouldings fitted?

Hi

Are there any car body shops or garages in Dublin who will fit side protection moldings to a Toyota Avensis? Toyota supply the parts, but its labour is very expensive.

What's happening with the new Hyundai Santa Fe?

Are there any pictures of the new Hyundai Santa Fe coming out this October? The new Hyundai ix35 looks good, but it has very little spec inside for the Irish market compared to other countries.

In Ireland it is very diffucult to compare one car company with another because Ireland gets the worst specs. Here in the US I would buy a Hyundai before any Merc because the specs are much better as are the warranties, but that is not the way it is in Ireland.
