My car's been in for 2 services now and no one's ever commented on them, despite being bright blue and very obvious when car is in the air.

In a word..... YES
Just depends on dealer
Some are jobsworth fuckwits that cut off their nose to spite their face.

Thank you very much troops.

I think if I was taking it in I would have them removed and fit new carriers, just to be sure.

Saying that it could be the overall size of the rear brace that knocks the price up.

Tried them, the issue is it volumes out so they hit it. I struggle with shippers all the time, none seem to be any good, insurance cover is non existent and bumps our prices up. Sods.

Shippers are getting worse all the time. Try sending unique and very expensive parts from vintage and historic cars like my company has to do all the time. They sometimes absolutely refuse to even handle it, let alone insure it.

I end up putting it in the boot and delivering it myself half the time! My only option is UPS, especially going abroad. They'll insure to any value but it's serious $$$$$$$$$

Yep, just spent half the day in the can dleivering and picking up a fuel tank and Recaro seats, the costs to ship them were just mad. (they refused the tank point blank, empty or not).

if they fit it you keep your warranty, thought that was obvious

And if you just unbolt it they will never know it was there.
