    i changed a vp lexcen to early vn calais. but i changed the entire wiring loom including the dash loom, body loom, engine and computer. if your not going to change the dash and body loom theres just 2 plugs in the engine bay that dont match up off the engine loom and will need to be modified.... its just the plug heads themselves, theres no extra wires or anything....
    dont sweat the petty... pet the sweaty...

    what year vn engine and loom do you have? if it's a later vn the plugs will match

    early as hi_ryder says needs to be changed aswell as the dash to engine loom

    it'll go straight in then with the loom attached or you can just swap the motor and use your existing loom without having to remove it from the car
