They are fitting items I bought from DMGR here, to get rid of my MOT advisories:

Nearside Front Suspension arm pin or bush worn but not resulting in excessive movement (5.3.4 (a) (i))
Rear Suspension arm pin or bush worn but not resulting in excessive movement trailing arm bushes [both] (5.3.4 (a) (i))
Offside Front Play in steering rack inner joint(s) ()

So, 3 bushes and something on the steering rack. Seems very little for £200 of labour, but I understand fitting them involves quite a bit of work (or so they tell me...) I showed them the parts, they looked to see where to fit them...

Co-incidentally, they had a small part delivered to the garage during their inspection, costing £53. Garage owner was not happy at the price, immediately 'phoned the supplier for a discount, and then sourced something 'similar' for £10...so I'm pretty sure the parts I have sourced are as fit for the job as anything they might have bought for me!
