Cheerful sods 

I dont suppose theres a local OOFer who could help ?
That price seems obscene to me. 
As for TPMS. I would pull the fuse and just use my tyre pressure gauge, same as I have done for the last 50 years. 

Madness. If you cant be arsed to check tyre pressures once a week you shouldnt be allowed a licence. 

All done in the name of "progress".  TPMS, rain sensitive wipers etc, all done so many don't have to properly look after their cars. Just be reactive instead of proactive.

Funnily enough, I have a VW99 relay on its way to me, so I cand get rid of that useless "feature" on my Omega. 

Run a chargeback on the bill? You mean commit fraud?

Less fraudulent that charging to do the same job twice

Don't talk shite.

Probably, but finding where they are stashed is another matter.

Apparently it works

The annoying part is I have a mate who works for a parts distribution company and can get me parts at a discounted price.

None of the garages around where I live will fit parts supplied by myself.

There's a few going that way here.

My tame Merc Indy was reluctant to fit a used transmission into mine on the basis that they would have to charge me again to take it out of it turned out to be dead. Once they knew that I understood that I was paying for the labour and not for them to warranty the gearbox there was no issue. They will fit any new parts I supply as long as they are genuine.

One local place refused to fit genuine discs and pads that my neighbour supplied for his Octavia.

You should name that garage though as they're clearly taking the piss.

Alternatively run a charge back on the bill.
