p.s make sure you use the correct oil, if in doubt, supply it to him yourself.

I had mine done earlier this year, bought my own oil (amsoil from http://www.performanceoilsltd.co.uk/automatic_transmission_fluid.html) £100 for 10 litres and pan filter (don't forget the 2 'o' rings & Gasket) £30 from local FMD then paid £50 to my local garage to do the job, you will also need to get a shorter bolt for the new filter as it has been modified
