    Well done for having the 'fastest fingers in the east" lolol

    From memory, mine for my car were about $120 for the 2. I got them from my local garage. Hope this helps...sort of???

    Coz there's so many sizes, if you can, you'd probably be best to take one off and show the salesperson. Using all care when doing so. I'd hate to see you get hit on the head again.

    Try this guy he should be able to send them to you. Is very cheap as he rebuilds them. About $35.00 each.

    I use him for work and myself, recommended to many, never had a problem.

    You may also want to try trailer places. Sounds a bit odd but, I know, but I picked some up from one here in Perth a year or so ago at the same length but a higher load rating (meaning they should last longer) for just over $20 a peice

    Bought a set from this ebay guy a year ago, still work fine, and less than $50.

    Usual disclaimer about no ties to the seller.
