if u do have anu trubble with it and its still on the viecle get in contack with department of comuner and emplee protection and speak to the motor department they will be more then happy to take care of it just like they are doing for me

Howdy all,

First time here, so be gentle.

I have a couple of friends who have had issues with the 3 post Feral bar. Yellow stickers n stuff. I have a 2 post Feral..... no dramas...... yet!
They did get the stickers off.
I'm here coz I was worried that I might be hounded too, and might need you guys support. Just in case anyway.

So looking at the strong support on this site, I hope you will be there for me when needed.

How did it go with that Consumer Protection dude? I had heard that nothing more has happened??

I'm interested to know if any more has come from the Consumer Protection issue?

well like all good government departments, consumer protection ran and hid..
They chased up Irvin, Irvin more or less told 'em to bugger off. Consumer protection said there is nothing more thay can do. What bloody good are they if they don't do anything!!

well i guess the moral of the story is don't buy an Irvin bar, there are more then enough companies around that are making 5 posters that you could get away with in WA that would not cost you $2000 in the first place
