took my new vr wagon for a drive and got a grin from ear to ear, 5 litre 5 speed with 3.9s and lsd... heaps of fun to drive!

MY09 VE Omega 60th Anniversary
Used this:
rLCz3l.jpg

(Yes, a VE rear door does fit in the back of a Hyundai Getz!)

To turn this:

Into this:

$300 for the door, plus $50 to get it retinted (not yet done) beats the $1856 quote I got to repair it.

Can't remove the glass from original door and swap over? Or a CBF since can get the tint cheap?

Bit of both. Looked in the service manual and started pulling the old glass out, but it started raining and I just said screw it.

$1850 to replace a door ? WTF !! and nice job by the way, did the door come from a wrecker ?

Yesterday fitted the Holden harness for the towbar. Today towed stuff with the VE for the first time and enjoyed the ride with the new suspension.
