Oh and I thought about leaving the wiper off and smoothing it over, but I really like having a wiper on the rear window. Yeah tail lights is a tricky one still chewing the fat on that one. I don't even use my wiper ( might be a turbo thing LOL) I'd use it if it had intermitant button

No worries. Hate to think what HSV would charge ya for one of them garnishes tho! I know a guy who does taillight tinting, does a mean job, not some dodgy supercheap spray can job either. Can basically do em as dark as ya like, and pretty sure he can tint the tint if ya get what I mean. I'll find out if he still doing it and post back here when I know.

**** you really know how to make my work look **** That should look heaps better than standard. I only just sprayed my tailgate on the weekend so I dont think I'll be doing anything to it.. but something like that would be awesome. Have you decided how you're gonna work the lock and handle? And yeah just the one really fast setting for the rear wiper is a pain in the ass, i just turn it on and off when ever I need it cleared Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Getting my mate to put a door popper on the tailgate thats activated on the alarm keyring thing also will put a button in the glove box.The Maloo insert is just an idea that I've been toying with but being HSV the insert will cost heaps. The whole ass of the wagons look so dated now just trying to to see what I can do thats not to weird
