There are some good recommendations and contact info within this thread already. If you mean "pass it easily" as in "look the other way on a few things", I don't think you'll find anyone recommending that on this site, nor a reputable inspection shop willing to lose their license.

From reading your other thread it sounds like your Delica has some things that need to be fixed, to be able to pass as well as to be safe, and they should be fixed for everyone's safety. That's what these inspections are for. If there was a fatal crash caused by these issues, or if they were found out in a roadside inspection, that's just more ammunition for those that want to take away our right to own and operate these vehicles. Please do it right!

Crappy tire isn't "picky" they are idiots and fail vans for things that have nothing to do with the legal requirements

Another A++ from Pro-Star Auto in the NE

Went there this morning without an appointment, and was met by very friendly staff, the owner included.

Asked them to OOP my new Delica (which I love already) and although at first he said "not today we're super busy" after talking to him (Dan the owner) for a bit he said, 'leave it here and I'll squeeze it in'

2 hours later they were done, the van passed everything, and I'm on the road!


Great service, great price, great guys all around.
