Lol, the G8 owners stole it from the GTO owners, still not something we're proud of.

Color matched vinyl stickers are a cheap option that doesn't draw much attention.

I almost won one on eBay, but it went to high and shipping was astronomical. I also think it would be really hard to fit one in the oven to open it up.

Yeah, the VX lights fit perfectly fine, I just had to get your harness with it since the lamps are keyed different, so if you're looking for USDM lights make sure you get the wiring harness with it since ours are different than yours. My GTO is stock performance wise other than a Vararam air...

+1, the GTO is the best thing to ever come out of Australia :D. I think changing brands is like abandoning your car, I don't personally care for "Monaro" conversion people do stateside or people that put corvette engine covers on their car since it has a corvette engine.

Yeah, they're all around here. I think we have 60+ here at the University of Illinois. I'm surprised no body caught the CB antenna. Thanks for all the compliments too, I'm happy with how they turned out. The LED set will probably be done over winter break.

If you put them in the oven it is easy to take apart, it was hard to do with just a heat gun. All the OEM sealant stayed in play when I took them apart, so I'm just going to heat them back up and clamp the two pieces together.

We have those over here too, but I wanted something that looked OEM in quality, and I like the horizontal lines on the VX tail light.

I decided to hold off on the LEDs for now, but here is a set of Blood Red VX tails, I'll have some pictures on the car by next weekend.

It's all wanting what you can't have. There are a good number of GTOs on our forum that have imported the Monaro front end, and a couple with the HSV front. The 04-05 GTO tail lights are very common, I picked up a set before for $35 shipped on eBay! The 06 tail lights (black ones posted on my...

No one over here really knows the reason either. The guesses are safety concerns or clearance issues with the new split exhaust. I didn't know we affected all the Commodores, I thought it was just a Monaro thing. I'll formally appoligize for us ruining the boot, I can assure you people stateside...

I don't have the slightest clue what ADR is. I'm in the US if I didn't mention that before, I have one of your great exports in the form of a Pontiac GTO. OEM GTO tail lights: With the unmodified VX tail lights:

I'm just getting started on this, so I figured I'd share to get some opinions before I get too far in. The Goal: I love the shape of the VX tail lights, but I like the color of the CV8-r tail lights, so I am trying to combine the two. By removing the chrome behind the lens, I will obtain the...

Can anybody point me to a pin out for these clusters?

I have an LS2 :w00t:

Got a new face on mine, figured I'd share.

You can buy the lens for the cluster for $27 USD in the states. GM Parts - GM Auto Parts - GM Parts House USA and since you guys seem to love the 3 window ones:

nope :whistling

GTO's have the same wheels as you guys, the 18s are 235/40/18 and the 17s are 245/45/17. The width isn't the problem, we have struts problems, which causes them to rub into the tires. New strut bushings and radius rod bushings from Pedders and everything is fine. For us the widest people...

So when you press it, all the lights go out except the speedometer? I've seen different stuff in different places, and other posts on here led me to believe it was in the BCM. Do you have pictures of your fusebox?

I know someone who has some tuning capabilities stateside, but he needs a VIN # on a 9C1 to look up what they came with.

So from what I gathered, the Interior Light Blackout switch normally kills everything except the back lighting for the speedometer. This is normally controlled through the BCM, and the cars are re-programmed before they are sold to the public. Is there any way to reverse this, physically? I...

Found everything Modified Vs Stock -------- GTO vs Commodore The switch modified (looks completely stock) Installed pics:

I got the switch installed, looks very nice. Phreddy, you say you paint these pieces alot, any suggestions on how to paint the window switch block black? I just bought a tempest one on eBay.au and he'll ship to the US.

In the US they warranty the door handle paint, common problem on the GTOs too.

BMR if you a ridiculously heavy duty one.

Its looks like the black switches are on the 9C1, possibly the Calais, and it looks like the VYII R8 Clubsport. Any more models?

Sorry it took awhile to check back, forgot that name of the site (oops). I found a kit from JHP and ended up buying that. Phreddy, your AUX in kits are awesome! Are you still making them? I know they said you stopped awhile back and there hasn't been a lot of mention of your name in awhile...

Awesome info and pictures! Is there anything this detailed for the steering wheel controls?

I am looking for this part: http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m239/chrisfox75/For%20Sale/gto%20switches/IMG_4642.jpg From searching I have found it is called: Interior light lockout switch: (Centre console mounted button, isolates glovebox light, boot and interior dome and map reading...
