    As I understand it mate, the best way to achieve the Monaro look with a VT is to do the following.

    Replace centre garnish (bit with the reverse lights) with a VX garnish in your colour.
    Change over to Monaro style lights and replace wiring loom with that of a VX.
    Swap rear bumper to VX so you get the rear reflectors (unless the Monaro lights have rear reflectors).

    Best bet is to go to a wreckers somewhere and grab most of those parts, don't know Melbourne to well and pretty sure there isn't one on Swanston Street.

    I bought this car, has some sorta monaro theme happening.

    Has no rear garnish. From my understanding is a Calais boot.
