this dude Paddy, from paddys pitstop, east wall. Can do it. Hes probably opened till aroun 8. If u give em a call.00353-1-8559711. And while in there ask him to pump sealant into your tires. Cost me 25e per wheel a few weeks ago. And 2 days ago i got a puncture. Heard a big bang from behind. When i pulled over and inspected a wheel found a nail in it. I took it out, went to a petrol station and checked tire pressure. Nothing changed. That was sealed straigh away. Thinking dat fixing a puncture would cost me 30quid and a lot of wasted time if happened sumwer in remote area make me smile that i cheated "death"
