Welcome to the fordforums.com.au site! Your a thoughtfull girlfriend! Wish mine was as with my car! lol
Ebay is your friend. -most of the time except for rip off merchants/scammers non paying auction winners.. slow postage sellers.. check this stock tail light out.. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Ford-BA-2...item588e070f09 or a nice slight variation... http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Ford-Falc...item3cbbfd96a0 |

very thoughtful.
look for genuine items if possible, the aftermarket lights fit a little disjointed. Just so you know HULK_EF and I are not brothers. Its not a rule that everyone has to have HULK prefix before their user names as per the two responses. |

Try FTG Auto Salvage.. (Ferntree Gully).
They are a site sponsorof this forum, so if you scroll down the main page to near the bottom you will find their area, and you can ask em if they have any.. They buy n wreck those kinda cars all the time, so Id say the chances of em having some would be good.

no worries, You seem nice. He must be lucky to have you. My GF frowns apon money spent on the car/and questions when i do spend the coin.
Anyhows as you can see there is quite a few options for you. Goodluck with it.. and dont feel scared to post picks up of the ute, mods done to it and any "Before and after pic's. -if the ute is allready modified.. |

Good to see another GF wanting to help out her BF for his car. Most girls I know hate there BF spending money on there cars.
My GF drove from Hoppers Crossing to Wallan and back to pick up a DVD player for my GT. She is the best. |

Agree with Donny.... FTG Auto Salvage will help you out for sure.
They should be able to give you price options on second-hand and new parts, at fair and reasonable prices. Just give them a call and they can post parts out if you are not in their area. See here for contact details: http://www.ftgautosalvage.com.au/ You may likely need to find the build date of the ute (mm/yy), which is located on a sticker under the bonnet. This will assist in getting the correct parts.
