hi just wondering if anyone can shine some light on how hard it would be to swap all my VR Calais interior...power windows, level 3 instrument cluster, climate control if possible into a VR S Pac?
Putting Calais doors, rear bumper boot on S Pac (same colour) but just wondering what problems i may be in for if any one can help out would be much appreciated
cheers
would be a big job, but if your game enough and have a logical approach to things, do it.. it'll be 'easier' to remove the dash and swap the wiring over to support your calais features, then its just plug and play
doors u'll need a door pin remover, boot is just 4 bolts.
yeh i've pretty much stripped everything out of the calais just not sure what wiring i'll need or if i'm going to need calais ignition barrel to match up with BCM
swap the loom all behind the dash, some plugs will go to the bcm some will go to the ecu. u'll have the looms that stop at a plug at the front door kick panels. replace all that, then you can plug in ur climate, pwr windows. u'll have to swap key heads only so you can leave the barrel intact if you want. but since your swapping doors & boot also u might wanna swap the key barrel as its 1 barrel verses 2.
the other thing, grab yourself a manual, when i've done conversions the manual (wiring diags) have saved my life well car![]()
ok i've already got all that out, when i was stripping it all found a lil bosch computer behind drivers side kick panel???? wondering what this is? and if i should be transfering this aswell? cheers for all this helpin out heaps
that is for ABS brakes, does your donor have ABS also?
Just want to confirm that both your cars are VR's yes?
both are vrs yes, but no abs.... is this a problem?
