tantrum thrown tonight, toys are all out the pram

sick of trawling ebay waiting for irmscher parts -  local vx are clueless i wouldnt want to even ask them about bits....

irmscher website doesnt seem to let you buy direct, any other search via google has`nt thrown up on line retailers.

So where do we in buy the magic "I" parts ?

all i want is 65mm centre caps and back box....for starters. The usual vx haunts lmf vaux and autovaux are drawing blanks too....

anyone ?

Just did a search & came up with this;

Irmscher online
Europa Way Lichfield Staffordshire WS14 9TZ
T: 01543 410990
http://www.irmscher.com/

Don't know if they're any good, but we deliver their stuff, so worth a try.

I think these suppliers do Irmsher parts:

http://www.lmfvauxhall.com
http://www.grasmerevauxhall.co.uk/acatalog/Irmscher_Collection.html



But I have a 99 Omega Elite the grille was damaged  - no longer in stock.

Irmscher UK get spares for only  for 5 years the when they have gone  they have gone??

..... search the internet from then on or  scrap yards?????

We deliver Irmscher stuff for a company who's postcode is WS14, same as this place so I'm thinking they've gotta be a supplier, not betting any body parts on it though  :D

Does anyone know whether Irmscher ever made door pins the same design as the vauxhall standard ones only I have only seen one type that look totally different.

Am after either chrome/alloy whatever they are made from as they look good.

Both sets look good, am I right to think I would need to change the sleeves the pins go into or do they use the same.

Hope this makes sense

To fit them to mine I just popped out the orange tab & it just lifted off.

The new ones are predrilled and have two allen bolts on the side to tighten up and hold in position.

I got the cheap alu ones from LMF & had to drill 10mm deeper for them to sit down enough - 10 minute job.  :y
