Hi Glenn welcome to the club. I doubt you will find a hatch at any wreckers. The problem is insurance companies want more for them then wreckers are prepared to pay so they just get them crushed. Sad I know but that is the facts.

Try Eddie wreckers or Mitsiwreck. Good luck.

thanks for the quick response
I tried down at lonsdale mitsi-bits, no luck + Eddie wreckers have sedan in stock

My daughter tells me the big r's
reduce
recycle
reuse
all those perfectly good parts being crushed is criminal :cry:

Also I saw on the forum the list of lancer accessories, so went to dealer at morphett vale to inquire about a fold out protector mat to cover bumper when taking stuff out of the hatch, it listed as $45 , parts guy said it wasn't an accessory but could get one a part from a VRX $340 ( for a piece of carpet)
Do you know of a decent dealer in Adelaide?

That dealer is wrong. It is an accessory. check this link out. http://clubcj.net/viewtopic.php?t=1131

DS000431 Scuff Guard Boot Flap
RRP=A$47+
CCJ=A$45.00

Now you can tell the dealer the part number and they should find it for you. Otherwise you can get it from "Ofey" but you will have to pay for delivery so it will end up more.

I have one and swear by it as it stops scratches when loading and unloading the pram.

I hope that helps.
