Thankyou match my wheelchair now I've always wanted to get spotties I could do it to, so mum and dad got me these with that in mind too saving up for a d2a bubble light upgrade to go with them

Dont. It’s a step backwards in useable light.

I wonder if its some RACQ condition.

Replace upper and lower ball joints and halfshft seals, sump gasket and rocker gasket.
The only real shocker $250 for the sump gasket
Mario had quoted $75 for genuine.
Local bloke claims he is prevented by law from fitting parts sourced from non shopfront suppliers.
And the price of oil! Crikey!
I'll have to tell him to go down the road for a better deal@SCA.
This should get the The old girl up to spec.
Sump gasket sounds like not much fun to do on your back under the car and I doubt I'd have managed the ball joints.

That's a beautiful colour.

Is that talking the D2 vs D2a headlights? Which one is better? I was under the impression, I wouldn't know though, that the D2a headlights were better???

I didnt see it that way..

I've had a hole in a headlight that came with my car so I should replace them anyway and really like the 2a ones
