All Monaro headlights fit the VT.

It's just the wiring that is different.

depends on where you buy them from Holden's charge over $300 for EACH headlight, somewhere like Just Commodore Spares you can exchange your old headlights to some Monaro ones for $250. Fitting is simple just take off your front bumber and switch the lights + a simple wiring mod that i'm sure is required with genuine Monaro headlights- wrx884 would be the person to ask about the wiring mod.

The Monaro headlights use the projector style lights coz of this they use the H9 and H11 globes (high and low beams)

As 4 the little mod u need 2 do 2 the indicator stalk have a read of this

monaro headlights, will they fit?

The rest is exactly wat jamesl_VTSS said its that easy just remember 2 adjust ur lights after.

why dont you get some altezza's from egay, iv got them(the tinted ones), $270 for a pair, they use H1 globes for high and low. I put some IPF 150watt (only draw 60w) globes in for low beam and they are just awesome.

Hi VTVTPREDATOR,

I am 99% sure the VZ Monaro headlights will only fit with either the VZ Monaro or GTO front bars.

If you do want to go down the much cheaper non genuine route i can supply a pair of the black projector ones as pictured below for $255 plus postage. They are way cheaper than the genuine ones and we have sold hundreds of sets, they are an awesome light for the money.





We have just joined JC as a sponsor so if you are need of any lights or have any questions please don't hesitate to ask, by either PM or email andrew@carsrus.com.au

Best Regards
Andrew
