+1 Btw thanks rucxy, link worked :beer chug:

Ubhhh.. This has plagued me for a couple days each time I think I'm ready to wire my footwells in. Reading the older posts it sounds like I need to wire positive to orange/black and negative to white/green. But I can't find white/green... There is however Green/white - but I don't want to...

Looks great! Love the tail lights, were the a straight swap? May look into doing the same.

Very nice. Will look into doing that next. Been messing around with interior lately and adding LED Footwells. On going project as I need to wire it in and I'm not 100% confident haha. But I'm almost there. Will put pics soon.

Wow I love this forum! :D I'll try all of the above and let you know how it goes. Champions :)

*sigh* it happened.... My parkers weren't working, went to check them thinking the LED is faulty or needs a wiggle or something. While taking that pain in the ass bulb out, it fell in the headlight. The plastic housing I accidentally broke some of it while doing it the first time. So I guess it...

Yeah the wheels are growing on me, I originally thought to leave it silver like K-Man's but I think the matte black goes well with the car Haha, yes ok! I'll take some more this weekend Not yet, mechanic keeps telling me to lower it everytime I see him haha so eventually will do it Yep...

Haha, best quote

Just a quick tip, it's good that your just replacing one. So you can use the other one as reference. Otherwise you'll be fiddling around trying to get it to sit in the harness thingy correctly - good thing is that it won't sit until you've positioned it right. Also make sure you've got adequate...

Thanks heaps for the info! Yeah that's all I'll be doing now. I did search but not hard enough. Will host the images elsewhere and see if they work.

Had some straight mufflers put on, and was horrible. On the outside it was great, but the inside the drone was unbearable at 2nd & 3rd gear. Before: After: Lesson learnt, a few people did caution me about putting mufflers (straight or sports) that it would be droney. Might wait a little...

Yeah, I took it for a spin to see how bad it was, nothing that bad - but then again I'm no expert. I'll wait to see the outcome later today. I'll keep my stock mufflers just in case, but hoping I won't ever need them! Okay, I almost had an epic rant - but I'll restrain myself. Basically the...

Bit of an old thread, but for anyone attempting this. If you can't get it out the first time this is what I did. Move the coolant bottle/air filter out of the way. Remove the headlight cap. Remove the headlight plug so you can see the parker harness. Try pull it straight out, if that doesn't...

Thanks, long read! Must not be very high on Vic Police priority list, I've seen so many cars with aftermarket non yellow/white parkers

Okay so, last few weeks been doing a heap of research into what mufflers to get my VE Omega Sportswagon and I wanted to get pretty much the same thing. Went to DEA Performance and they have their own brand mufflers. After some convo with a couple of the guys, they said most of the time anyone...

Thanks, is there stated any where? Seems to be an unwritten law haha. I'll move mine to the parkers then and get the white ones for the plates

Is it legal to have blue number plate lights? Or do they need to be white? I can't find anything on VicRoads or VicPolice sites... Bought some from SCA, I assume there is some reason why they are allowed to sell it, but I'm assuming interior lights also use the same click in 12v ones

Great idea! But looking at the top pic the mount is in permanently? It's such a good idea to use an iPad or even Android tablet. Too many ideas coming into my head!

Looks great! Also love the tint & dash, never seen that colour interior - I wonder if green leds in the footwell area would match it

heh, yeah I noticed that some of the pics weren't coming up - but then realised I wasn't signed in :whistling

Hahaha, well they are putting sensors everywhere these days. Having a look tomorrow at exhausts & front bumpers - will see which one I'll do first depending on what I can get. I think just a few days of getting used to the height difference and I'll be right.

Upgraded from a 03 Sedan, and absolutely loving the wagon! I've loved the look of VE's and finally got one :) Date of ownership: 18/03/2015 Model: Omega Series 2 Sportswagon Engine: V6 3.0L 6SP Auto Colour: Silver Options & Accessories: 20" x 8.50" - Cavallis Iconic Flat Black Wheels Plan(s)...

Yeah I'll go check out local wreckers on the weekend, I don't think I'll find any - but otherwise will just keep an eye out online. Lots have been warning me about parking! Is it that bad tho?

Good to know! I haven't bothered to use the IQ to search contacts or make calls yet. Just happy with receiving and playing music! haha

That's odd. Mine just auto connects every time. Sometimes I have my phone Bluetooth off, I just enable it and the car auto discovers it. I've never needed to go to Bluetooth settings other than the first time. One of the best things about the IQ sys. Have you got another phone to try it out...

Ah okay yeah makes sense. I may just keep an eye out for S2 ones then. Thanks buddy, could've contributed by linking me to that thread? Haha I'll try have a look in a sec Did you have Series 1 before the crash? Roughly how much did they pay it for or was it all part of excess. I'm not fussed...

Awesome, is there anything I need to be aware of with the bumper bar, one size fits all? I'm assuming no diff between series 1 & series 2.

Sorry if this has come up once before, couldn't find anything in the search. I've got a VE Series 2 Omega Sportswagon and wanting to upgrade to the SV6 Front Bumper + fog lights. Two things, where's the best place to buy and can I fit all myself? I have a feeling the fog lights I might not...

BlueMan can you link that info? Got the same service next haha

Let us know how you go, would love to see how it looks. The spoiler for me will be after exhaust, I think I'll just do the muffler only as its 3.0L and I just want that low rumble and no drone (not that I've experienced it yet). Not sure if you've looked into that yet? My bad, just read...

These are the rims I have on my omega sportswagon 20" and 8.5 I think both front & back, didn't think I'd like the matte black but I'm a fan now! I was too thinking about the SS Kit, but it looks strange on an omega, I'll try find a pic of one. This is UFOs Eleanor, not sure if its...

Had this exact same problem. I went with the Omega Series II in the end. Down the track I might put the SS Kit on it. Interior is a bit, boring. But doesn't phase me too much. Noticed a little diff between the SV6 & Omega off the lights, SV6 is so responsive just a light touch and she's off...

Thanks for the quick replies. Been more than 12 months since last service. Is this something I can do myself? Or better to get a mechanic to do? I don't want to spend money on this car and rather learn and do it myself. I'll looking up the manual and have a read about the coolant. Will also...

The other day I was replacing an indicator bulb and I removed the coolant bottle and found it looking like this. Should I be worried?

Nothing special. My first H/U install - less than $80 :)

Well I followed this video... Not sure if remove it really helped or not. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8FT9oBqXWI

Just wanted to share my joy replacing my stock Blaupunkt with something that has an AUX port. Also being the first time I'm doing anything audio to my car I wanted to use something cheap. After two coat hangers and a lot of swearing, I ended up breaking off the face plate of the unit (ripped it...
