Attachment 27300Attachment 27298Attachment 27297Attachment 27299I installed a Commodore VF rear window interior sunshade. GM Part No: 92274006. I am unable to insert link. I thought you can copy and paste link into little box that says: type in URL. Sunshade fits in G8 even though it is for VF Anyways, price was 68.38 $US and shipping was 50.72$US. This came with little metal clips but I did not use them. Shade panels somewhat wedged into place. I wish I could have bought this through Crazy Paul though. The photo that is "attached thumbnail" is before photo. Light silver pieces at top sides of rear window was from a past attempt to attach a static cling type window shading. I could only get first two pieces on. Unable to put more up due to reach and window angle issues.
looks good !!
karo at holden parts usa has them here in the US

Thanks, Last time I looked at Holden Parts USA they only had a kit that included two rear side windows along with rear windshield. Maybe he or they would sell just the rear window, I never asked. Also, I haven't driven with windows open. Don't know if wind buffeting would make clips necessary.

i know holden only sells them as a complete kit , so not sure if he would break up a kit , but never know unless you email and ask
not sure id want to drive with the side windows down and leaving the blinds up id think they would blow out , the clips from what i know just hold them up , and be able to take the blinds down

New GM headlamps and Holden headlamp protectors arrived last week and new GM fog housings are on the way. Followed texn884's lead and ordered Alla Lighting LED bulbs for low and high beams, fog lights, along with the decoders.
I installed a new Amsoil pre-filter and filter today, and I received the Straub bronze bushings that will get installed on RCR's cylinder heads this Spring.

Washed the Rat yesterday and today went to get gas and hit a deep pot hole as I was going to get gas infront of a car wah.
I went inside the car wash to bitch at the manager and told him I hit it with my car and he said ya we know about it and also its not going to hurt your car but hitting the hole and I said how about I take your arm and twist it and see if it does not fuck it up and the stupid kid looked at me like whattttttttttttttttttttt ???
FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
it does not pay to have anything nice anymore I just need a 72 Olds 88 or 98 and say fuck it and be done with it
