    HOW TO Steering Controls VX/VY

    I just installed in my VZ the PAC SWI-JACK I purchased from Ebay US for $55 AU shipped. JACK stands for Jvc Alpine Clarion Kenwood (J.A.C.K) and as promised works well with my alpine Head unit. Was quoted $250 for the CAT module through northfield, Bugger that, so I did some research and found...

    So, you want to keep your stock headunit....

    NO, I dont want to keep my stock, Sh1tty head unit! Why not just get a new one, I did. High level inputs suck and will sound awful. New head units are cheap and double to single din converters are cheap as too. Get a PAC swi-jack steering wheel remote unit from ebay to keep your steering...

    where to put tweeters in vs? and to dynomat?

    No point running these splits off the head unit mate. Your head unit will put out max 20w (if it is alpine, 15w for most others) rms per channel, and these splits need 60w rms per channel to drive them. There will be no gain in using them without an amp. You will be more satisfied if you amp...

    vz wagon window washer-wagon

    oh yeah, the VS handled like a bucket of crap compared to the VZ, worlds apart. HEaps more power too, and a better looking car. Yep, both washers feed from the one under the bonnet, confused me at first too!

    Aftermarket double-din head unit options

    I just put an alpine head unit in, it has the DIN connectors by default on it so it is a breeze. There is no soldering at all. It literally took less that an hour with my son climbing around the car distracting me to install. Northfeild have a 2 din to one din convertor pocket, costs around 45...

    [General] DIY: The cheapskates way to shaving the rear wagon wiper

    I am not sure of the legality of having a rear windscreen wiper or not, I am sure you dont need it, but am dubious on your call of" totally legal" without any proof. It looks ok, but my experience with this sort of thing is once its done, you never come back to it. I doubt you will get it...

    VZ Fuel Economy

    i get around 14 in my wagon, depends on your driving style. I have a bit of a lead foot, when my wife drives it she gets around 11 or 12, so it is completely subjective. I get around 9 highway driving. If you are gunning it at every light change 18 wouldnt be out of the question

    My SS rims had some gutter rash on them when I got them, I cleaned them up with a dremel with a sanding wheel on it, then from 2 meters away you can barely see it.
