    pretty sure you will need to have some sort of side indicator, you could probably go with a set of those aftermarket side mirrors with the indicator on them.

    don't think they'll care if you shave your emblem or aerial, but as mentioned you might have to have some sort of side indicator

    i reckon they look much worse than a simple clear side indicator, but each to their own

    Old cars came without airbags, doesn't mean you can remove them legally from your brand new VE. Same deal here. Newer cars have to adhere to newer laws.

    vn commodores dont have side indicators, do you think it would be a problem if vs's didn't? usually they only check back and front indicators

    yes, it would be a problem. adr's changed just as the vp was being built, to require side indicators. so if the car came with them, they must retain side indicators. if you can find the adr sheet on indicators(dont feel like looking it up right now), it has specifications on location and viewing angles and such.
