here here. i recently got a good second hand set off a wreck for $20 inc all brackets. might i suggest you try your local swap meets. there has been some good items appear from time to time

Those things are worth money??!!
My car came with a set and that's the first thing I took off. I [think] I kept them in case I needed them for rego in the future (my car unreg).

id have to admit with the wreckers most of em dont give a sh!t on pricing for old commos
i picked up a rear VH bar (standard) and it was perfect! it looked like it had just been rechromed a month before i snatched it up.
When i took it up to the counter and said "how much?" he said "mmmmm how does $40 sound?"
i thought to myself "FU@KYEAH" what a score!
if you got/found one like this on ebay the dipshits would start a bid at $200.......and some people would buy it too!

But the old vh/vk's are few and far between at the wreckers these days so you have to stop in on a weekly basis just to get to one before it gets raped by some clown who doesnt give a sh!t for the next person! end rant haha

yep your right. i went to my local wrecker the other day an found they had a vh wagon 4 cylinder. hadnt seen a 4 cylinder for years, so i made sure i grabbed the the cold air intake off it just cause it was so unusual to see.

I remember trying in vain to find a LH rear original flap for the VB......looked all over NSW and sydney Spent about 6 months. I resorted to EBAY and got a boxed NOS rear pair for $212. However since then more have come out; indeed for a while a guy was re-manufacturing replicas for $15 each.

Have seen a NOS boxed set of front and rears go for $350+.
