I was driving by and happen to come by my favorite corner where they do fancy car work example: tinting the windows, chopo boombox car stereo installation, fixing the automatic windows of car and door electronic repair, car alarm, transmission gear shift lock (multilock) and all the rest of car electrical / electronic problems. This is called auto adorno shop.
Anyway, I had a few problems in my old Toyota: high beam lights switch didn?t work, the ceiling light was also dead (new bulb but no light). I stopped by the electrician and disturbed him while he was eating. I simply told him what needed to be done and left him the keys. I went to eat myself on foot. I spent a good 30 minutes walking, eating and resting. Then when I came back, I saw the old man in full swing action. He had my car steering out, along with 100 screws and a bunch of wires. Obviously he had taken the switch out for the lights. He then just disappeared to no where with my switch. I don?t know whether he rebuilt it, cleaned it or simply bought another used one. I didn?t care as I only cared about the end result. Needless to tell the whole story,he came back with the switch and was done with my car in 1 hr and 30 mins. The car hi beams were working fine, the ceiling light was also lit and there were a few other minor glitches that he also resolved. Total cost 200 pesos (9 dollars). I gave him 50 pesos tip and drove off a happy man.
Now on my side a man was getting the power window fixed in his Mitsubishi SUV. Apparently his electrical motor for bringing his glass up and down had failed. They took apart the inside of his door. Took out the electrical motor, rebuilt it or simply replaced it with another used one. Total coast: 150 pesos for the rebuilt motor and 100 pesos for labor. 250 total. Just imagine how much it would have cost him in USA?
