pedalbox problem! Advice needed please

[floaty]

Hi there,
The pedalbox has broken on my misses 1.4cl and i need some advice or help from someone in the know about polos.
If i get a new one from VW will it be a redesigned one without the issues that affect them? Also what sort of silly price can i expect to pay?
Does anyone know how long the job should take to change it? We will be getting a VW trained guy to do it and i'm just looking for a heads up in case the price is a bit over inflated if you know what i mean.

Many thanks for any replies as i'd like to get this sorted asap as she'll be using my golf until its done and i'm worried about the state of my alloys when i get it back!

alrite m8. the pedal box went on my polo a while ago. the part cost between £25 and £30 bucks. now the job is a tricky one. it could take up to three hours because the entire dash and steering wheel all have to be taken out to access the actual pedal box. Dont pay anymore than £120.
