    Does anyone know of somewhere I could get a spare light board for a thule 9403 tow bar mounted carrier. I had mine smashed yesterday :(
    I've googled it and only seen UK based companies flogging them for Stg£65 plus shipping. I was wondering if anyone in ireland was dealing in them
    Thanks

    If the bulbs are difficult to get you could consider removing the existing light board and replacing it with a trailer tailboard. They generally cost €30-€50 from car accessory shops, agri suppliers etc. and come with cables of various lengths. Just attach a reg plate to it (and make sure it's not attached upside down! - a common sight).

    Edit: I misread your post - I thought you had difficulty getting light bulbs.
