Any decent trade tool shop should be able to help...
Do they need to open inwards or outwards....single use only or want to use for ever?
Look in the yellow pages.....under tools - trade etc
Don't try bunnings unless u know exactly what u are looking at......they couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery....

They look fine...should easily do the job..

neva mind i gave it to a shop to do it.

and im not sure what brand are the pliers but its pretty strong sht, but still cant get it out.

went around automotive shops and pretty useless, the ones they sell are exactly wat i have already. and was like $90:angel: so fuk dat.
