Does anyone know the best place to buy a new mini alternator in sydney on a Saturday?
I would normally buy from Karcraft but they are closed on weekends.

+1 Thanks for the offer John,

I called about 20 different places and struck it lucky.
I bought a brand new LRA100 45amp for $190
Bit expensive but i guess its weekend prices.
