Default need au parts!

Not sure where to go on this site, I'm hoping that someone might be able to point me in the right direction to get an abs unit that would suit au Fairmont 2000 build. The xr8 abs unit only has 1 pipe out the side and 4 on the top. Fairmont and ltd has 4 at the top and 2 out the side, I need to swap or buy one to suit mine
Any idea's????
Cheers craigau

Does your Fairmont have traction control by any chance? I think this may be why.
