Hi All.
I'm looking for a shop like the UK store Halfords. Do they exist? Anywhere close to Zurich would be good.
Cheers!
Matt

Haven't seen any specialist shop like Halfords but both the DIY shops of Migros and Coop stock car/bike stuff (e.g. Migros in Brunau, Coop in Oerlikon)

C'mon ... this is Switzerland. Swiss people aren't expected to do maintenance for themselves, when they can pay for someone else to do it for them.
However, as mentioned the big stores of Migros and Coop carry cleaning products and a few limited maintenance and accessory type products.
Jumbo will also have these, plus a few generic general spares.

Thanks Marco, much appreciated.
Was looking for things like car audio and wired blue tooth handsfree for phone (and the installation of).

The closest equivalent would be ATU. They have branches in Winterthur and Spreitenbach. By Swiss standards, their rates are reasonable. If you think they're a bit steep, try their German branches along the Swiss border.

It has DAB, iPod internal storage and connection and Bluetooth hands free with a built in microphone. It cost 250CHF a few weeks ago but I think it is on offer at the moment so may be a bit cheaper. http://www.sony.co.uk/product/mfi-ip...io/dsx-s300btx
MediaMarkt also sells the cables needed to connect the stereo to the cabling in your car. I fiited mine in under 10mins. Very easy.

Does anyone know if there is another place that does mail order similar to Conrad but without their excessive order charges?
I wanted to order something from there for 2.95CHF.
On top of this, their charges were: - Delivery: 8.95CHF
- Packing: 3.95CHF
- Order processing: 5.00
Total charges: 17.90CHF for something costing 2.95CHF
