I piked up everything I needed to fit my water tank including the taps and filler cap and hoses from Carac trailers in Dandenong. I know its not close to you but there may be a trailer builder or caravan place near you. The Hume Hwy is littered with Caravan outlets that would be you best bet.

Xtrail in Kilsyth have a 108 litre stainless steel one, I have one on my camper trailer and it is doing the job well, Sam can also fit if you need.

It came as part of the package when I bought the CT so am not sure about the individual price.  But is one of the last couple of Camper Trailer Touring (about two back I think) under inovations it was listed as one of the topics for that month.

Hey Welcome to Craigieburn...!!

Best place to start is the big caravan shop in Sydney Road opposite the Ford factory.  They sell heaps of stuff and I would bet they would have a water tank suitable for your TS.  Alternatively, there are a few caravan factories in the industrial area in Campbelfield who may be able to help.

The opther place to try would be Red Rock campers.

Good luck...!
