    Question Wreckers

    I am in need of a boot garnish, front right blinker and an SS brake light. Can these be found easily at a wreckers?

    Can anyone recommend some good Commodore wreckers in Sydney (or near Earlwood) and provide average prices for the above items? Thanks for your help everyone.

    Commwreck sounds good. From searching it on Google, is that the one in Condell Park on Ilmar St? I've never been there but have heard here and there about it but never made plans to go for a trip there. Should be worthwhile though.

    I went to Commwreck yesterday and found everything I wanted except for the garnish and rear SS brake light.

    All up, I managed to get a head light and blinker light unit and heaps of bolts, screw, nuts, etc, for just $20. Definitely worth the trip. Now I just gotta find the items above and possibly an exhaust system unless I decide to get a complete new one fitted.

    Thanks man.

    If anyone is selling a VS garnish (grey bit in between boot lights) and/or rear VS SS brake lights (single or both) then please let me know as soon as possible.
