Hey all,

just returning to BC from Ontario. My vehicle was originally from BC and I took it to Ontario and registered it there.

I am now returning and need to get an inspection done (ICBC form MV-3199). Does anyone have any good and affordable experiences getting one of these done or similar inspections? I'm located in Eagle Ridge area in Coquitlam and it is for a 1995 truck.

Much appreciated! Ideal spot would be cheap, fast, hassle free and open until 10pm on sundays :hotbaby:

Perhaps crappy tire? I'd guess they'd be on the cheaper side.

This is my own personal experience only, so take it with a grain of salt.

My experience with places that offer cheap, fast, and hassle free, always end up being a hassle because they will nit pick the littlest of things and fail you on the inspection.

You want to find a place that will offer a free re-inspection without having to do the repairs through them. Canadian Tire is one of these places, but always check with the service adviser first. I suppose it really boils down to what you value more - the bottom line of a cheap/fast inspection, or your time/opportunity cost.

I can't recommend of any shops out your way so hopefully someone can chime in.
