if u get a vx calais garnish leave the standard vx lights in looks heps better

[ned]

just the stock 1,,no lights in it,,just plain panel

you can use the stock vt S2 lights but you have to drill a hole into the indicator and make a harnes for the reverse lights. So basically its the vt lights but without the reverse lights in the middle garnish. A member called " daron " has done this mod.

But i think you would be better off just going with some VX tail lights they will look decent

Genuine monaro lights only come in red. You wont get genuine ones from autobarn.

Monaro lights are not a hsv item.

[andyos]

You can buy them on ebay.With alot of this stuff it is personal preference.I think done right with a VX garnish they look good.

Just to give you an idea of your options i guess. The first is how i bought the car... 2nd is with the plain vx garnish with black altezza's. The third is again the plain vx garnish with vx tailights...

Hope it helps!



EDIT: Yes I know the car is filthy!

Hey MyVT

i think you should keep the VT garnish, as your car is red it fits in quite nicly. I reckon you should just get the VT tail lights with clear indicators. There is a pic of mine in this thread

It seems to me that everyone with a VT wants it to look like a VX when you can make it look pretty cool with the clear indicators.
