there's several dash conversions on the Street Commodores forum.
Seen a lot of VR/VS dashes into VB-VL and also some VT-VZ.
The dash has to be narrowed, all the pics I've seen they've always cut off the sides of the dash to fit

**VKCOMMO** · 13-12-2009, 12:04 PM

i can't register on SC forum with my gmail account, can you please put up some pics?

thanks

**vk.jonno** · 13-12-2009, 12:08 PM

hey, dad owns his business and i just made hima yahoo one and mums is so secure its not funny, thanks for the pics jonno, it looks good but sorta out of place at the same time, did someone say something about a VZ one, got any pics?

and also how hard would it be to cut the sides, im thinking ,aybe when i sign up on SM to PM CHU88Y and see how he did it with the WRX one..

thanks

**vk.jonno** · 13-12-2009, 02:15 PM

yeh i know i think it would be far too much effort because of the re wiring and cutting shaping extending everything its just a big hassle.

i myself am just going to get vynal paint, spray it all black and get white backgrounds for the gauges off ebayy (:

**VKCOMMO** · 13-12-2009, 10:00 PM

were on the same page here, i think i might jsut stay as is

**vk.jonno** · 13-12-2009, 10:46 PM

just the hassle of it all
vynal die will do it for me
oh and i wouldnt mind changing the upholstery on the seats

**ari666** · 13-12-2009, 10:51 PM

wow! i must admit that dash looks pretty kewl. wonder how you go about fitting the air bags

**vk.jonno** · 14-12-2009, 09:15 AM

i dont think he is fitting air bags mate,
i would do it. but i doont think i could handle all the wires n shit

lol

**VKCOMMO** · 14-12-2009, 09:52 PM

i dont think its worth it really, i might just save for some VHT vinyl dye cause my dash isn't cracked and then go and spend the cash i was going to on the dash, spend it on some autometer gauges in stead

**vk.jonno** · 15-12-2009, 10:27 AM

mate save money for like rehaupusted (how ever its spelt) seats.
or like a rebuild or something like that.

how much is the vynal die man?
cos i want some

**VKCOMMO** · 15-12-2009, 12:39 PM

im looking at getting some racing seats but yer, i think VHt vinyl dye is about $15 a can.

SC did a write up on it in their tech section, i had it once but can't find it now
