    Hey all,

    I got a few simple jobs to do

    1. Replace the aerial on my VX as its bent. The motor is fine but they want to charge me $120 labour to do the job.

    2. Whist I'm ordering a new aerial I thought I'd get some chrome interior doorhandles.

    Does anyone know if there is an instruction manual for this anywhere I can get a hold of? It would be super handy.

    I heard that there is a CD or something but cant seam to find it. If someone knows were to download these types of instructions, that would be even sweeter!!!

    Regards

    can't help with the aerial, but to do the door handles is pretty simple

    pull the plastic cap out of the centre of the handle adn undo the screw behind
    pull the handle out gently and unhook the actuator rod
    fit the new handle to the actuator rod
    push new handle in position and refir centre screw
    refit plastic cap (no idea if the new caps are chrome or plastic)
    and you're done

    I should note though that getting to the actuator rod may be a pain in the bum if the door skin is still on the door. not sure, haven't tried

    to find the service manual download, find the thread about it in the vt-vx section, it's on the last page, but doesn't have any info about this stuff, it's the same program holden use
