if your round nottingham/mansfield i know ben@sharkperformance fits them for a pretty good rate. 

the dealers can do it, but you'll probably pay for the privilege.  i would have thought most VAG uners could do this, as long as they have VCDS.

JKM portsmouth maybe.  but you may have to take into account travel costs, as when you add it all up, the dealers mate end up cheaper

If you are handy with the tools, fit yourself. Its just a case of changing stalks and coding it.

Have a chat with vRStu - he's in hampshire and he fitted mine. Can't remember how much it was though.
