    i have a vx berlina wagon 2002. mine has factory bug screnn in both the grill and the lower bar area.

    i just recently changed it too a chrome mesh. it is simply held on with a bracket. if you went to holden you could possibly order this bracket.

    From what i can tell it was a holden by design option

    Hardest thing will be taking the bumper off... and that aint too hard.

    But it is left open like that for a reason.... to let the air into the radiator, so you cant block it up too much.

    Please don't do it.

    You will regret it later as it rattles loose and rubs a hole in your condenser.

    Is this what you want ? I bought some from Autobarn and attatched it with silaflex . I put a piece of A4 behind it so you can see it clearer

    HBD , Wrong.

    Your's was an optional extra through spare parts for Berlina's and Calais variants.

    Spare parts RRP was in excess of $80 for the factory insect screens.

    This optional extra was available for all other variants dependant on the front bar.
    I like my roo well done

    Genuine VT / VX insect screens are are very hatd to find nowadays. I think Holden have deleted them, or so my local dealership told me...

    I saw a seconhand set of VT screens on feeBay recently - i bid up to $121 and still lost!
