    Keeping It OEM ?

    Each to their own. Seeing how much more they fetch at wholesale or auction was all the inspiration I needed, But some days I do miss having the loudest lowest mean machine in town. Original wheels and sound system would go a long way. I even purched new PZERO's to match the build sheet. It's...

    Where is TPMS module?

    under the parcel shelf brother, you can just turn off tpms in the dash cluster, otherwise they use the old opel sensors which only had one frequency so don't remember them needing learning like the VE's. Was a primative system back then, all you saw was a warning, which useless on a car without...

    Yes this is a "whats this for" but im so confused

    I'll have the antenna if you don't want it? Having hacked up so many cars, I now have a fetish for anything that makes a car look like a 2005 time capsule. If I could get my hands on the DELL Axim PDA and cradle the SV6000 had I'd be a happy man!

    How can i raise the height of a vz crewman front end would like to go 40mm above standard cheers Dennis this is the six wheeler conversion I've recent

    I would use adjustable coilovers, would likely need to reset the sway bar situation with some aftermarket links. Can't imagine cramming taller springs into stock struts will do much for travel

    WL Center locking System

    Yes, often they sound like they work but are too weak to operate. They are common replacement in Australia

    steering wheel

    Looks like a much safer option, also an Australian company so can't go wrong using paypal. I think the issue with RLG is that they don't have access to the actual steering wheels they're selling trims for or have done a 1 off that they haven't correctly copied the patterns for. People make...

    BMW Center bearing compatibility With WL

    After reading some of the other posts from the OP I do see now that It's related to an SS Caprice in Saudi or similar. With the silly assumption that the OP was indeed located in this country I was genuinly curious as to whether there was a misconception that a BMW part is supposedly superior...

    vz wagon air shocks

    The tow package ones had to be filled with air manually through a schrader valve from memory. They are a Monroe product, possibly max-air? The factory FX3 auto levelling system is more complex than it sounds because it runs through the interior light sytem to avoid lowering while you are in the...

    WL Center locking System

    If none of this is working as decribed then you may have a fault, the drivers door lock and actuator more or less sends the signal to the BCM to unlock the rest of the doors

    WL Center locking System

    If you have 2 stage locking turned on in the dash, the remote will lock all doors but only unlock the drivers door unless you hold the unlock button. On the door snib, locking should lock all, unlocking should unlock all. You can also turn on autolock in drive in the dash settings. You can also...

    BMW Center bearing compatibility With WL

    Question, as a former parts interpreter, If the Holden and BMW use the same part, I can't understand why you would you want to buy the one that has 5x the markup rather than buying one from an OEM supplier like mackay?

    HELP!! Wh seats into Wk caprice

    years and years ago but I think when I did it, the backrest motors had the different wiring to the seat module. I think I ended up swapping the wl trims onto the old wh base, and then stuck the wh motor into the rear frame.

    New to this and would love help or advice

    I know people are sick of hearing this but seriously don't waste your money. Nothing cheap will ever improve the performance of that car and you will never, ever see a return. Save up and you can buy the car of your dreams when you aren't restricted. You can turn more heads in the car community...

    2006 VZ Monaro (Pontiac GTO) rear wheel studs

    I can't imagine why you wouldn't find a metric stud in the US.. ARP make 12x1.5 stud do they not?

    steering wheel

    Also wanted to add that after reading my reviews, redlinegoods has published my personal information online, including delivery address and phone number and labelling me as a 'scammer' because I won my paypal dispute. I know it was them because I normally use a PO BOX so rarely use my full name...

    Where else to buy a Delco battery

    No magic brand of battery folks, sold them for years. It's a roll of the dice Varta is considered a **** brand however mines lasted since 2002 I sold upto 20 22F530SMF's a week bu never had good luck with ACDelco in my own cars

    What will my 2017 holden vf ssv be worth these days

    This is what I mean, The fact that a warranty issue is enough to throw you off a whole brand is absurd Years of experience working for both Manufacturers in different capacities. Believe me, I'm more than confident when I say all cars have issues, but it's people who buy a Merc for the sake of...

    What will my 2017 holden vf ssv be worth these days

    Nothing wrong with a Merc, people just get stars in their eyes without knowing exactly what it is they're buying. Same as any make, they have reliable, tough as nails models with solid drivelines like the M113 722.5 and then they have models built in Mexico with an M642 Just not suited for...

    Working! Factory Handsfree kit in 2023

    Such a clean looking install too, I think it's an awesome edition despite the lack of audio streaming. Again not my daily driver anymore, barely get out these days so I don't mind loading up the 6 stacker like back in the day

    Working! Factory Handsfree kit in 2023

    Due to the lack of replies I assume there's few people out there that haven't already gone down the aftermarket road, my goal here is a full restoration for future resale value. For those with a factory head unit or restoring back to original head unit and wanting to carry out this mod, the...

    VE 07-09 Bluetooth pinouts

    Seems the IPC and head unit play a bigger part in this setup, Don't believe It's going to be as straight forward to adapt to a VZ as the accessory kits

    VE 07-09 Bluetooth pinouts

    Sorry to rephrase, I know the pinouts on the VZ, looking for info on the VE connector

    VE 07-09 Bluetooth pinouts

    Anyone have a wiring diagram for VE bluetooth module? looking to patch a module into my factory VZ loom Expecting it to have the same features as most modules.. Power ins, Mute out, speaker out, mic in, button signal etc Hoping because its factory fit, theres actual diagrams out there

    Transitioning from a Commodore to an EV

    I'm curious about the sales process, I'd just left the game when they started discussing 'The Agency' or 'Apple' model whereby manufacturers set a cost and you more or less buy it at said cost whether it be online or in person. I know you mentioned the pain of going to the dealer, but haggling...

    Working! Factory Handsfree kit in 2023

    My research makes me believe that theoretically any bluetooth kit with mute signal and audio outs will work so thinking I can use the module from 92149670 which was an accessory kit for most imported holdens

    Working! Factory Handsfree kit in 2023

    Now that I'm an adult, I'm just in the process of refitting my factory headunit, moving my video needs to a factory VDO nav unit. As far as bluetooth needs, I have the factory button and loom but no module. It's a very old memory but I vaguely recall a whole bunch of modules being based on...

    Killswitch/Fuel shutoff ideas

    Well dont want to give too much away here but It's not as hard as you think, easily done with the right obd device. My concern is that with 12v available under the bonnet a basic ignition cut will just slow someone with the key down, I've heard through some shoptalk of people bringing these...

    Killswitch/Fuel shutoff ideas

    Well the final straw for me was a group of 7 colourful young chaps parked next to my HSV in an empty Kmart parking lot. "Nice car bro" My response- "This car is a bag of **** with a bodykit mate, never buy one" and I proceeded to kick the tyre. I was with my mrs and had my arms full of ****...

    Killswitch/Fuel shutoff ideas

    Hahaha. See I'd end up keeping the box of fuses in the glove box which would be a dead giveaway. At the moment I just keep the steering wheel off, so unless they have a 30mm spanner.. Should just leave a note on the dash, If you take it, do me a favour and torch it when you're done
