    VE factory roof mount DVD w/ aftermarket HU

    No worries. Cheers for the quick reply. The factory DVD player isn't very good anyway, so maybe I could fab something up to fit an aftermarket one of some sort in the hole.

    VE factory roof mount DVD w/ aftermarket HU

    Is it possible to retain the roof mount DVD player when installing an aftermarket head unit using the Aerpro kit, ie is there some form of aux out that can be connected to a new head unit? If this is not possible, is there an aftermarket roof mount player that fits as a direct replacement, or...

    Calais V Sportwagon

    Been a while, so here's a bit of an update. I haven't done anything cosmetically at all, but I have done some bits and pieces elsewhere. Changed out the stock rear cans for some cheapy redbacks to get a bit more rumble. Started removing the rats nest of aftermarket wiring, sat nav with touch...

    I'm thinking 20s now, but that's a future problem. Grille looks good. Harrop OTR is fitted now as well.

    H7 led

    Osram Night Breakers are my go to globes for all my vehicles. Nice crisp, useful, white light for a halogen. Stock 55w means you're not running the risk of damaging lenses or wiring like some of the gimmicky over-wattage types. I've never used the philips xtreme vision, but I've seen good reviews.

    IQ into S1 Calais V

    Hi guys, sorry if it's been answered before, but I have a question about fitting the s2 IQ unit to an s1. I have a Calais V with satnav, bluetooth, reverse camera and roof mount DVD player. If I fit the s2 head unit, will these plug and play?

    Yeah I've got my new handbrake to swap over on the weekend, I was planning on doing a full detail on the leather and pull off those mudflaps too. Wheels will be after the otr and tune that I'm hoping to do in the next couple of weeks. I've discovered that the roof racks I have are sedan ones...

    Calais V Sportwagon

    Wagon was a no-brainer for us, we've got two kids. We had a magna sedan until now, I don't think I could go back. I don't know why families buy those jacked up hatchback "SUVs" most of them are tiny inside compared to the commodore.

    VE Rough Idle & High Fuel Consumption

    Bit of an update. Car went in to the local dealership for a check-up today. O2 sensor codes are probably related to the exhaust, crappy idle is likely due to the cam with no tune. Got a prescription for a dyno tune basically. Might as well do otr at the same time I guess.

    Haha, as per my other thread fuel economy is trash. The cam was installed after the stock cam was found to have wear on the lobes due to a couple of the standard lifters crapping out. Just looking through some other peoples rides threads, I definitely need to lower this thing on bigger wheels asap.

    VE Rough Idle & High Fuel Consumption

    Cleared codes, started the car, idle was crap, maf code came back. Unplugging the maf while the car was running made no difference to the vehicle running. Curiosity got the better of me so I pulled the maf off, it was pretty damn clean inside. Could it be a faulty maf? The car isn't throwing an...

    No probs. Will pull the MAF off tomorrow and have a look. If it's not doing it's job, I'd assume the ecu would just dump a heap of fuel in to be on the "safe" side?

    Sure did. P0102 Mass or Volume Air Flow A circuit low P0054 HO2S Heater resistance Bank 1 sensor 2 P0060 HO2S Heater resistance Bank 2 sensor 2 So Maf and rear O2 sensors? Should I clear these codes and see what happens? EDIT: Pics of codes
