    blown AC!

    problem solved. turns out the the bushes in the fan motor needed a good thorough cleaning up, there was also a screw loose in there from something, so it was removed. Fan motor generally got a service for $60 and it solved the problem.

    How do i fit MONARO lights to my VX s2

    With my VX i had to get different looms because the slots on the monaro lights to fit them were different. $10-$20 off ebay. To remove and fit the tailights, u gotta undo the black plastic piece at the back of the boot, the whole section that surrounds the boot latch. There will be 4 screws...

    blown AC!

    that thought occurred to me, i'll have to check it, but i dont think its the only issue, because it stopped suddenly, then went again, ten completely died. as far as i know, i think only one thermofan is supposed to contantly be in use, and i think the 2nd one only kicks when as required.

    blown AC!

    yeah the exact same thing happened to me today. The a/c was working fine this morning, then on the way home from work, the fan stopped suddenly, then went again, a/c was full blast, then the whole fan system inside thecar just stopped completely. I pulled up and checked all fuses/relays, inside...

    stripped hollow on the inside

    It wasn't a stupid mod because the stock dash did not have a tacho, it had a clock instead. It wasn't there for looks mate

    Insurance/Liability question

    Thanks for your advice mate. Basically pretty much everyone i talked to seem to think the company should pay for it, seeing as the damage was done while the car was parked off street on their premises. I have photos to prove what happened, but im concerned that the powers that be will do...

The acclaim...
