FTG (site sponsors) are a very reputable wreckers. They are based in Melbourne.

Try on here, you will be surprised what people have stashed away.

What parts car you looking for?

There is also the Parts Peddler magazine, and a lot of wreckers are linked on a network that share info/requests.

A GXL had square lights too, not twin round lights (as per Cobra, rally pack etc)

I threw out a factory black XC seat set 12 months or more ago.

Bugger. All I got left now is the dash/wheel and padded glovebox

Of course theirs the Bendigo and Ballarat swap meets. I know that doesnt suit you at the moment but they are always a good event.
