Hey Yonnee,
I dug out the catledog they sent me with the GHL locks. They are a mob called American Autoparts in Homebush & Beverly Hills Sydney. I think from memory I paid about $120 which included $5 for the catalogue I have in front of me, and postage to Canberra?!.
They're on the net @ www.americanautos.com.au or amail aapsales@americanautos.com.au
These guys offer direct competition for the hotgemini online shop - but hey competition is about keeping the prices down so I don't see a problem. You can buy just about everything you need for any model gem (new) from these guys and the service was great - 2 days to deliver.
C'Ya

Thanks Dave, I've been doing some enquiries today about finding a supplier. At the moment, the prices from some places make it not worth keeping, would be too expensive retail. If I can find out who the importer is, I can get a better buy price and look at stocking them. Good to hear somebody else giving good customer service, hope it wasn't just a one-off (even if they are our competitor).
Yonnee. |

I think you might mean Mana.
OK, these prices are only autObarn recommended retails. The brand I looked up was Nolathane, and the prices are for the kit needed for the car for that item.
Panhard rod; $29.00
Rear control arm, front; $42.00
Rear control arm, rear; $42.00
Rear sway bar mount, ('D' bush); $24.00
Rear sway bar link; $100.00. (this one I'll check on as to why it's so expensive)
I have access to other suppliers including Pedders so I can get pretty much what you want.
Regards,
Yonnee.
p.s. sorry it took so long. |
