I recently replaced my old HOT halogen lights with LED. The cost can be quite expensive however at Ideal Electrical (Browns Plains QLD) they can be purchased for a lot less than price of the major retailers. EG: $16.00 - $18.00 for one LED two pin light in Camec, Jaycar and Jayco Spares, as opposed to $5....

I would like some info on the Painted Desert & the Breakaways. How far & direction is it from Coober Pedy? Can I do a self-drive, as a tour is a bit expensive I think?
