Is there a way you can just take apart your headlight and paint them black? ;)

Hey Mick, No i do not have an aftermarket alarm installed. In regards to a relay sound, i will let you know soon as it happens again. Does the noise come from down near the fuses? The drivers side door? Or all doors? This problem = ghay lol

So it happened again today :( made no difference if i used the key or the button it only would do the drivers side door, n the rest stayed deadlocked. I tried many times but it stayed like this, even after opening the drivers side door and playing with the harness. After taking it for a drive...

So i did the reset by disconnecting the battery for 3 hours, so far it has happened about 3 times in the past week since the reset! So much more frequent. But if i press the unlock button again, it unlocks the other 3 doors fine (note that i am unlocking it from deadlock, i always press the...

Thanks Benjamin! I'm trying this on my car today, and will let you all know how it goes

Hey Mick, Unfortunately my car still does this..i just decided to put up with it! :( It happens once or twice a month, but usually when i press the unlock button again it unlocks the rest of the doors. Since I can never get it to happen when I show someone, no one knows how to fix it short of...

Would love to see some pics mate if you have them handy Cheers

The engine cover looks TOPS mate ;). Fills out the open space alot nicer. Did it really take that long to do? I'd love to do that in my VY, but I think to construct it be a bit above my head.

How have most people done theirs on a VY? As I have a VY s1 which will be getting this mod very soon, but im not sure to put the hole on the front, or passenger side, or both, of the air box. Cheers lads ;)

Hey yall ;) I have an aftermarket HSV mock spoiler on my VY Exec, when the guys installed the kit they re-drilled holes to move the angle of the boot struts but still, if you bump it while it it open, the thing slams down very hard. Where could I get replacement stronger struts? Would be...

So it was a scam? Man i would f'n hate to loose a grand to some chump over the net

any progress with this?? I am interested, n located in Adelaide.

Hey mate, Welcome n congrats on the new car! ;) It is quite easy to swap, you can get a black leather one with those silver steering wheel spokes from either a wreckers like just commodore spares (might set you back $180) or I have even seen them on eBay. I did mine and it makes a hell of a...

Running a 2008 clarion DVD dual din unit :) tis quite nice

ohh n to answer vn2nv, the Westlakes one. Though they always try to push soundstream. They definitely said 6x9 in the parcel shelf with my sub and splits. Getting them via connections at Strathfield.

Wow people are still saying yes to 6x9's and others say no. If it helps here are the 6" vs the 6x9s. Either way I have decided to mount them in the parcel shelf :) so thats one decision gone 6" 16CM 4-WAY GTX SPEAKER XSGTX1640 6x9 6 X 9 4-WAY SPEAKERS XSGTX6940S Ignore the pricing on em.

Totally agree with you guys, but actually only paying $150-$170ish depending on which amp. new ofcourse :) Its who you know not what you know..aint that always right ;)

Motorquip. Also had a look through the post your audio setup/pics forums on here, n seems almost everyone has 6x9's with a sub or 2 lol ;) Hmmm

Cheers Vn2nv Only $30 difference in my discount pricing tho, so cost between the two is not a HUGE thing ;)

So atm I have a 12" pioneer sub n amp, 6" sony speakers in the rear doors, 6" sony splits in the front. I am just about to get a 4 channel amp, but I have been told that the positioning of the rear door speakers is really poor, and positioning them in the parcel shelf will give you a lot...

Opps had the wrong link for the first amp, give that another look now Personally I like the first one (50x4) due to the physical size, but I would get the bigger one if ya think it is worth the extra 10w per speaker (60x4)

Hey guys n gals, So I have got a set of Sony 60w (260w max) Component splits in the front of my car, n a set of 100w (300w max) 6x9's in the rear. My current after market deck puts out about 20w to each channel by memory, n it gets pretty loud n clear but I want it to go just that little bit...

No, had cop mode enabled about 2 months ago, and this problem has come up within the last couple of weeks. Is very weird that it only happens to me on average once a day. N sometimes if I press the unlock key again it will unlock the rest of the doors, other times it doesn't and no one can open...

Well I have 2 stage unlock turned off - so this should not happen at all. But when it does glitch, even if I press unlock twice, sometimes it opens up the rest, sometimes it doesn't, very weird

Not so funny when it happens lol. How do I do a BCM reset? Will it lose the police mode function that was turned on via the service techs at holdens? Cheers Farlig ;)

Ok so it just happened again! I pressed unlock and only the drivers side comes up. I locked then unlocked this several times in a row and still only the drivers door would come up. Left it half an hour n now its back to normal :( :(

Yeah Greg is a champ at doing those mods ;) AS for the wreckers idea, tried several but none would 'loan' me a cluster for a week n the cheapest was $195, not really worth it in my opinion :| hmm

Yeah I could see most cops being a total c-word about it. Looking at getting two things done, the blue n white led mod by our good old friend Phreddy, n also maybe a custom design backing plate (with all the numbers etc on it)

About once every couple of days, when I unlock my car only the drivers door unlocks and the rest stay deadlocked :| so I can't even pull em up with my hands. I have tried turning 2 stage unlock, on, then off again in the options menu but still happens. Such a pain to test as I never know...

Hey all, I am looking at sending my cluster away to get some mods done to it, but will I be able to drive my car in the meantime? Airbags? Any error codes logged? An easy way to work out my speed? So far I was thinking of borrowing a gps to use as a spedo, n obviously keeping my petrol...

Yep ;) great minds think alike. SO pretty confident they will fit without too much mucking about?

Hey yo ;) Is it possible to replace the cloth exec door trim insert with the SS leather ones? Do they just clip on tight or do you need to take the whole door trim off? Or would I just have to go get a re trim? Expensive?

Also, does someone know the diameter measurements of the SS steering wheel vs the exec?

ok so if I go the VY SS one, can I use my current airbag or?

Hey guys n gals, I wish to replace my current stock steering wheel on my VY Exec S1 commy. I was thinking of geting a after market Isotta one (legal size) and just hope that I cop doesn't relise that I have removed my safety feature (airbag) Reckon I could get away with this? Any one else...

heh. Well if I wish to purchase a set, what is the GM part number? On another thread no one could get a part number for the silver ones. Not that I saw neways.

Yeah but considering i am going to paint my whole center console, I figured id have the paint n primer ready to go. Plus either way it sounds like im guna have to strip it down that far.

Ahh dang, I was hoping I did not have to strip it down that far.

so no way around this? has anyone successfully removed and painted theirs?

I have had a look through all these forms, and I couldn't find anything on this. I want to remove the front (what you press for the horn) of my steering wheel so that I can hopefully remove the rubber/plastic bits in between the center and outside of the wheel to paint them silver like in the...
