    Default VS IRS how to tell?

    Sorry real noob question here i have a vs 95 exec just wondering if they all came standard with irs or is there a easy way to tell if you do have irs or not? I seen most models with the badges just near the stereo to say it has "irs" but mine does'nt have it...

    cheers..

    check ur rear springs... if they're shaped like a cylinder, then you don't have IRS... if they're football shaped you do

    Well going off pantha's info the springs look more compact and shaped like the ones in the ebay listing he supplied they look nothing like this Commodore VR VS HD Shock & Spring Suspension Kit Rear - eBay, Other, Car Parts, Accessories, Cars, Bikes, Boats. (end time 16-Mar-10 12:35:36 AEDST)
    which im assuming is standard.. sorry don't know to much about cars lol.. and yes vs exec was it a option maby for the model??
