Hello all,

I was looking at buying a 95 XJ Sport in VGC except for a missing airbag
(theft).

No worries, I thought... I'll just get a price from my friendly local
dealer...

Try AUD 2,955 !!! Yep, that's the equivalent of over USD 2,000. Best I
could do from a non-dealer, Jeep-specialist was AUD 2,300 new OE, or AUD
1,100 for a pre-loved item. That's for just the airbag, not the wheel or
column or anything else. The dealer wasn't impressed when I suggested that
I wanted just one, not a six-pack... He was almost as un-impressed as I was
getting a price like that.

Question for the group:- Is there a reputable seller of Jeep parts (OE and
used) in the US that you'd recommend? Bits have gotta be cheaper over there
than here! Another example is rear tail-lights are about AUD 300 each here.

P.S. No wonder it was going cheap... I'm beginning to re-think my new
found love of the XJ.

Any help, thoughts, comments or suggestions will be very welcome. Last time
I checked I wasn't clearing half a mill a year...

Cheers, Clax.
