i'm not sure because this is my first car and im learning as i go.

so do you have any ideas or tips?

Thanks james

[SthEastCustoms]

Yes they will fit but as i remember the vc doesnt have a center garnish, ive seen it done on vh's before and it looks nice if you do it right

I know its different but heres a pic of my vk

[81_vh_holden]

yeah between the light it's where the numbr plate goes just metal. so do you think it would look ok any way...

Thanks james

[SthEastCustoms]

yes, are you planning on a respray?? what colour is it now?? any pics??

[Goon]

Looks like its already had a spray dude.

If there the same shape, they will look really nice mate

[81_vh_holden]

hey umm yer it is red atm but im planing on the respray either matalic blue or just red agian im not sure it's a hard decion.

Yepp i got pics i will post them tomorrow.

i was also looking to put new clear front lamps and indecator light in the front do you know if they fit in also?

Thanks James

These are the lights

[Goon]

If you want to install the vh/vk lights. your going to need the vh/vk bonnet and vh/vk side front panels with it.

[81_vh_holden]

ohh ok it seems like alot of work just for head light's but i will look into it.

[81_vh_holden]

so is that 4 the indercators aswell if i just put the clear 1s in is it the same case with the bonnet & pannels?

[81_vh_holden]

i was told by the seller of the clear indecators and he said the wont fit. does any one know is there is clear indecators for the front of a VC made?

Thanks James

Like Goon said, to chuck the VH/VK headlight/indicator assembly in a VB/VC, ya just need chuck a VH/VK bonnet and fenders on. It aint nothing hard to do. The bonnet is 4 bolts, and the fenders have a few extra bolts, but nothing to hard. There's 2 behind each kick panel, one underneath behind the wheel, all the ones on top, and about 3 underneath where it joins up to the apron (the same for the other side). Also there's a bar which bolts up to the fender, which is the same bolt holding the bumper on. Also holding the bumper on will be 4 bolts which bolt up to the chassis rails.....if ya get under the front of ya car u should see all of these (except the ones up top and the ones behind the kick panels). To do the whole lot, changeover lights, bonnet, fenders, remove and replace bumper.....would prolly take bout an hour from start to finish if you've done it a few times...so it isn't a huge job or anything.

Thanks james

umm bit more involved than that and would take longer than an hour. you need to cut or bend away metal behind the headlights and front guards or you wont get either the headlights or indicators to fit/sit properly. conversion was covered in street commodores mag not long a go.
not a straight bolt up job

DON'T DO IT UNLESS YOU ARE GOING TO DO A COMPLETE VK/L REAR END It looks shit with just the lights and chrome bumper a mate got a free rego'd vh that had that done to it (his good vh has no rego because he lost his LIC)

[81_vh_holden]

ohh ok. I dont have a chrome bumper i have a body kit on the VC. so it would fit in better like looks wise?

ok so it is a bit of work. well i dont think i will do it just for 2 indecators. i might just look around if there was any clear 1's made for a VC.

Does any1 know if there was any clear indecators made for the VC? If there was where can i get them from?

Thanks James
