    lol I actually heard that too Jase, isn't this bloke in Brisbane? Tried searching him on the net to no avail. $45 for a light bulb is killing it.

    Yes yes, that guy was in the Sunday Mail a few weeks ago, his business does one thing only: changes light bulbs. And believe me, his business is not the only one to do it, theres also one in Brisbane that specialises in fluoros but does other stuff on the side.

    And now for all the Bogandores and Flawds around Bris, theres this guy.

    Hehe there's a few of those here wanting $10 to change a tail light. They are only about 14, so good on them I guess. I could say something derogatory about a certain banned member but I will resist the urge :b:
