I bought some generic footrests for my Invacare for about $25 apiece. They
are a bit smaller but just as good as the original. I got them here:
www.edmond-wheelchair.com
They have the best selection of generic parts I have found.

I have bought a lot of parts from eBay, including 3
power chairs. I bought all the same model so I can
interchange parts as they give out. One Jet I bought
as 'almost' new for 350$ about 25 miles from me. I
bought a charge\r for one of them at the Pride store
for 180$ - never again - someone here gave me the addy
of a online battery charger seller. I got one for 25$
including shipping. I won't deal with the store again
unless I really have to.
Shop carefully as returning can be difficult.
