Hey I know this is an unusual question, but has anyone tried putting a VN bumper inside the cabin? I wanna buy one and take it home, damn it must be a tight fit if I can get in in there!!!??? :my:
Ah, nothing like a Datsun 120 WHY!
Front or Rear?
They'll both fit in, its a tight squeeze though. I had to do this a few weeks ago with my VP.
Recline the passengers seat as far back as it'll go. It will only fit in diagonally. Make sure you take off the metal support beam off the back of the bumper. This will allow it to go in a bit easier because its more flexible without it.

Good thing Commodores are bloody big on the inside! It should just fit. Shame the whole back seat doesn't come down like on the Falcon. That was such a simple and practical idea.

you can fit both bumbers in if you have the back bumper going through both rear windows and the front bumper will go in the front passenger seat and over the back bumperyou will have to have the windows right down to get the front in over the back one but you can do them up once its all in (well up to hold the rear tightly) you will also need the passenger seat at the right angle for this to work
its amazing what you can fit in a commodore
if you need even more room it only takes two bolts and the entire back seat will come out
im not admiring your car im looking in disgust
everytime i read things like this i love my wagon more and more![]()
even tho everyone says its s*** cause its a family car![]()

lol, wagons rock for stuff like this, when i wrecked the front of mine last year, the bumper had fallen right off, so i just opened the tailgate and chucked it in.
does anyone pay it out cause its a "family car"
Adam
nope, the subs in the back kinda kill that idea, as it reduces cargo space. theres quite a few people around my way that know my car now, in a good way too
Meh all commodores are family cars. Just some of them have some balls to back it up. I wouldn't mind knowing someone with a wagon or ute. Carrying stuff around in a 2 door is a bitch.
try opening the backseat thingo that opens to the boot. put the bumper through there n hav a bit sticking out through the backseat hole thing. fits too easily. had mine in there for 2 weeks
Meh, I would have thought wagon's were more of a 'workhorse' than family car, at least with my roof racks, cargo barrier, etc it looks more workhorse than 'family truckster'Originally Posted by _A_D_A_M_
Anyone who says otherwise knows where they can go![]()
I wish I had a wagon... never really wanted a sedan. My opinion is the sedan looks a bit better (althought I think the wagon looks pretty good too) My Dad used to own a VH Station wagon, he reckoned it was noisy and boomy inside, I did'nt really think it was that bad. He said he'd never own a station wagon again because of it. I'd give my left nut for a station wagon! Its the practical factor, its greatOriginally Posted by _A_D_A_M_
