scorps Posted September 4, 2011 Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 If it's a trusted centre then you'll be o.k you just need the settings from Tony's wealth of data gathered over many years, and welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wr1ght Posted September 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 thanks would i get the settings when i paid through the WIM site ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorps Posted September 4, 2011 Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 As far as i know yes but best wait when Tony comes on board as i've never used a trusted centre myself as i go straight to WIM central Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wr1ght Posted September 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 thanks ill wait for Tony I did consider going straight to WIM central but it would be a 7hr round trip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorps Posted September 4, 2011 Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 That would be a bit of a trek, though some have come a lot further before the trusted centres were appointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted September 4, 2011 Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 Hi wr1ght You are correct that you buy the data and centre of your choice Online from the wim/ BB web site. I then take control of the calibration, policing all the work.... Reads a bit scary thinking your in the hands of someone outside of wim but in truth your not.
