Where is the best place to get a new tail light for a GQ (1989) that is the ones that work not that are blanked out. In the Dandenong area or SE suburbs of Melbourne. I have used Eagle spares before but they are pretty expensive. Managed to bend my ARB rear bar up through the LH side light last weekend at Marysville. Must repalce it with one that doesnt have the light cutouts in it as they weaken the bar badly. Does anyone know if ARB make them without the light cutouts.

Went and got one from Commercial wreckers this morning, $58 worked out cheaper than Ebay as they wanted $15 to post it. Its all fitted now just got to work out what sort of rear bar to put on. Does anyone knwo if I go for Cheezies bar and chop the quarters whether you can still have a Hayman Reese hitch as well. I tow an 18' 6" caravan as well so need a decent hitch. Using the hitch on the ARB bar is ok but the bar is crap as it bends where the lights cutouts are. Either need to find a second hand one without light cutouts or go for a cheezy one if it will let me have the hitch as well.

He is not bad on prices for second hand parts, sometimes the cheapest I can find.
