    Replaced the wiper blades ($92 later...) and ordered a new door seal for the passenger rear to be picked up tomorrow and finally stop this water leak!

    Genuine Holden Wipers lol - they won't be cheap. But as far as I know, you can't get universal ones for them cause of the somewhat unique mount something they changed from the VZ to the VE. Many cars are heading down this somewhat annoying route.
    On the plus side, the door seal is $61 :)

    I'm pretty sure that's what my mechanic put on Dad's. For the sake of $20, I'll just go genuine lol. I was there anyway.

    Oh I also filled her up - she had a good day yesterday.

    Washed it, drove it to get some fuel, and then passed a very nice SLR 5000 mint as.
