Try contacting www.Traynors.co.uk. They are based up North so they will have plenty of used Vauxhall parts. They deliver to the Republic.

I reckon the only different parts on them are the badges.

Some ignition parts may be different, depending on where the car was assembled i.e Luton = Lucas, Germany = Bosch.

So things like ditributor caps,rotors,leads and coils will be different !
