Title: My MV6 Manual
Post by: Dave Hunter on 26 April 2009, 12:18:05
Just a few pics on my newish MV6 - very happy with it now but I have done a few things to get it that way, list so far:

* Rear tints
* Real leather gear and hand brake gaiters (that wasnt a quick job)
* New grille
* Valet
* Removed the towbar

Plus some general maintenance:

* HID sensor repair
* Brake pad sensors
* Service
* Stripped the front of the frame back and re-painted (cant believe how much rust there is on a W reg - what were Vauxhall thinking!)

Just got a Pioneer HU and facia to hook up so I can listen to my ipod again (those itrips just dont cut it).  Shame I lose the display - but at least I can keep my steering controls.  Then a small sub and amp and I think Im done with this car.

And in case anyone spotted it, that dent is being pulled out tomorrow!

Anyway, the pics:

Not much of a fan of the facelift, but it does look good in black, and do like the little mods you have done.
