I tracked down all the components minus the spare wheel carpet which is the easier bit to source. I would just us local upholsterer to make up a custom cover for the wheel. Thanks again!

In reply to - Chris O'Neill posted an update in the group HSV Owners General Chat Just a shout out to any GTS GEN-F2 owner out there. Would anyone that has either the original GTS spare wheel option fitted or has a work around, for securing a spare wheel be able to share some pictures of how you have it fitted? I tried to get the factory spare wheel option fitted when I brought my GTS new, but was told that that option was no longer available. I know some people are fine with HSV’s attitude and provision for flat tyres, but for me I not happy with it. IMO it is just another example of them not listening to customers. These systems as well as space saver tyres should have been outlawed years ago... ]]> b0ce2b9761319a4a1c5f549c6274b235 Chris O'Neill posted a new activity comment https://hsvdatabase.com.au/activity/p/13739/#acomment-18960 Wed, 28 Oct 2020 04:16:47 +1000 Hi Bill,
Thanks if you could post some images that would be great. I think I managed to track down all the part numbers from GM.

Build numbers can have been skipped (superstitions i.e. 13, 666) and have gaps.

Just go into a dealer (while there are still some around) and ask to talk with a senior service technician. In my experience they have been pretty helpful.

Thanks in advance Cheers Terry ]]>         94a4d1496b3887637ae58c721d6831f2 Chris O'Neill posted a new activity comment https://hsvdatabase.com.au/activity/p/14397/#acomment-14398 Thu, 07 May 2020 22:36:17 +1000 HSV seem to safeguard some of those figures after the VX series for some reason. I’ve tried over the years to get them out of them for VZ R8 Clubsport and GEN-F2 GTS each time no luck. It gets even harder if you try and ask them specifics like, how many where exported to NZ and how many where manual or automatic? With the imminent demise of HSV I…[Read more]
