    I'm thinkin' about putin' a set on my white VS Berlina ... got quoted $238 (fitted) from a local business here in town ... is this a resonable price? I thought they were at least over $300 a pair. This little investment is going to have to wait after spending $165 on a reconditioned alternator which I just spent the morning buying and fitting it myself.

    i paid $360 for them last year when they first came out but, i can get them now in chrome or black (chrome looks crap on white) for about $180 a set. fit them yourself. takes 10 mins. its very easy, just undo the screws, pull out the globes and put the new lights in.

    Default Tail Lights

    Hi folks
    I am a newbie just joined, I have a 95 VS Berlina and wish to put Altezza style lights on the rear, but down here in NZ they are so bloody expensive, I am coming over to the Gold Coast on the 5th of June to stay a couple of weeks with my eldest son, where can I get a set of lights from while I am on the G C ?
    or Brisbane ? To give you an Idea how dear bits are down here, I was quoted $980 bucks plus a days labour to fix the cover on the left side airbag
    Any suggestions on the lights will be much appreciated.

    Cheers cdsam

    Gday. The black ones would suit a red VS nicely. Where would I part with my hard earned coin on a set of these? ........as ebay only seems to have the chrome ones.

    Talking

    You can pick up both the chrome ones and the black ones on rarespares:

    http://www.rarespares.net.au/mainind.htm

    Click on the online shop tab and then follow the links/instructions until you get the list of Commodore parts for VN-VZ, select the tail lights list.

    Either set will cost you $325.74 plus delivery costs.

    The black ones look like this:


    I'm thinking about getting a pair for my dark grey VR but I haven't worked out if black or chrome would be better... what do other people think? It's a Berlina so it has a bit of extra chrome on the body already, so maybe the chrome ones?

    I gotta say, now that I have seen a pic of black ones on a dark car I'm thinking that's the way to go.
