Sometimes a bargain can be had from eBay, but sometimes you are just buying a door stop.In regards to what Steve said, only Australian stock will work with our cars. I too thought about buying from the US and then found out that it would be an expensive boat anchor.You buy one model and I believe it will work with all our XRs, GS and GT.What plans do you have? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
