Where to buy generator?

Where is the best place to get a generator for my beetle? The auto electrician rang Werners in cairns and they wanted over $400 for a generator!!! I only want the generator, not a whole engine!
Any suggestions?🤖

get an alternator kit from one of the forum sponsors👍

I've heard they are expensive in Cairns...

Many people on here will have a spare generator or two..
it does pay to have a spare..
as they are very heavy to post... etc

try a VW shop on here for a used one...
try Mick Motors in brisbane for 2nd hand or New...
Leon's motors in QLD

You can get a New Alternator kit for less than $400...
alternators are lighter than generators too.. lol

check out the advertisers in the VWA magazine...
