Do what BR suggested - Autovaux.........

Not only will they have what you want, it'll be cheaper than buying it over the counter from a Holden outlet, even if they had the part ;)

How the FK can GM justify an obsolete a consumable for a model that only finished 2yrs ago?

Is there not a replacement part, or do you now need to buy a complete assembly?

wots even more funnier that the 05 sri barina runs the same part number and in theory its still under warranty

they will sell me a complete assembly outer /inner cv and shaft for a $1000 plus where just the outer is $312

ouch!

but notice holden is an even bigger ouch!

i'd be off the the wreckers, because even autovaux's price seems alot for acv joint...

(by the way i just had a cv boot replaced under warranty and they said bothing about my mods...worth a shot taking it to a dealer who doesnt know the car..?)

last time i was there some guys brought one in from an old laser and the guys made one up out of different parts as they had a famila turbo motor and some other gearbox so was a few differnet parts so if its out of the car might be worthwhile to take it in to see if they can make one up or call them up and see if they can make one?

Check and see if they can do what Pat suggested and at what price...

Otherwise you may have no choice, but to get em from the U.K.

I wouldn't be too confident sourcing them from the wreckers, or other s/h ones, they might already be knackered or worn out........
