lol, i wish i could but i wouldnt have the faintest idea on how to do it...nor do i have the equipment here! Its just been taken on a ute, so i'll get some pics when i see it at lunch time :)

i need to get a fog light switch now so i can get them hooked up too.

Bought the bar from a guy in victoria, its got a little damage but its only minor and is fixable.. i'll leave getting it all fixed up until i get use to it, so i dont smash it :D

yeah do that, it'll make it a lot neater then just having a random switch in your car that doesn't look the part.

In any case they're pretty cheap; ebay is another good place to look for them.

simmy
7th January 2009, 03:09 PM
Thanks heaps guys.. yeah i know needs lowering, thats next on the list! lol. im guessing some eibachs are the way to go?

Very nice bar, car looks good in that colour. Yes eibachs are pretty good for handing and looks plus you can get them pretty cheap for the G's now, from eibach directly. Throw an Opel badge on the front and you'll be set ;)

Looks good mate, very nice in black.
I am still undecided which front bar I should go for, either the dominator one (like yours) or the SRI-T front bar.

Please note: I don't want to hijack this thread or any kind :p

thanks :) no i havent found the panel yet, havent had a good look. i rang the local wrecker here but he only had a realll old astra. not in too much of a hurry for them to be installed as i dont really need to use them atm..

thanks for that guys, i'll have a look on ebay for the switch panel, or see if a wrecker has one somewhere. i'll find one eventually :)
