When i got the wagon the glovebox stoppers had been snapped. I also had a spare from the ute i swapped the skins over and installed the HSV silver ring trim on the handle

So i HATED the feel of the fabric seats so i got my hands on a Brand New Z series set. Wasn't very keen on installing it myself due to not wanting to stuff it up but gave it a good crack. 7 Hours later.. Keep in mind these photos had been taken straight after installing. Leather is now wrapped tight to the foam

Brought these subwoofers off gumtree. the bloke told me they were to loud and he quieted them... I found that he disconnected one subwoofer and reverse wired the other. I have completely rewired both subwoofers correctly in 2OHM. Sound a lot better

Some reason i just want a nice clean looking stock isn wagon without looking like your classic P plate special so i have brought some Z series rims to match the interior. I honestly love the look now. I just have to find some time for some good SLR camera

First thing was the seat plastic was broken for the passenger side

How did you get it off and do you just push new one in.

The new ones have a metal insert piece in that broken bracket now.

I love reading your threads bro, always makes me want to do crazy things to my car. i think i may need to change my suspension back to a spring and shock combo and do away with the CV3s and clean up R8WAGZ look. I also need to get my arse up to see you about my system haha

What he said ^^ Its been 3 months its time to move on ahah. I had a STACK of photos cleaning this thing up and new items but really doesn't matter anymore because i have SOLD the wagon but ill show you the last days of ownership.
The final thing on the list was to respray the rear bumper

I've seen it on FB but I wont give it away. Although anyone remotely familiar with what you've been after for the last few years should be able to guess lol
