    If it as a aftermarket stereo,then you need adaptor wires. So the steering wheel buttons work.

      I will go and have a look for one see if eBay has any! Thanks

    The dash is the correct colour as it’s meant to be gunmetal grey.
    As for the radio controls you need a Connects2 adaptor for it to work with the aftermarket radio
    And finally this car belonged to a lad who worked at Seansway Jaguar in Crewe (Danny Barber) before it was sold and ended up in Penrith

      I wanted one for ages, glad I had one now. I’ve never liked the vxr as much always preferred the mk4.

I learnt a lot about the car from Aaron Unknown ,Uk Based and he is extremely knowledgeable in these cars . Its worth checking his channel out if you run into any dead ends .He got a couple of worked up monsters like yours including a beautiful Red one.

      Anyway, I've always loved that shape Astra especially the Arden blue GSi version you have. What's the drive like? Is the suspension stiff or bareable?

    • @1BlueGhost
      @1BlueGhost  4 роки тому +1

      Quite comfortable really. I imagine it’s factory stuff, I haven’t really looked. The interior feels quite nice, seems massive compared to the Honda.

    Exact same engine and gearbox. Yes mine has brake pads warning on also as i fitted wrong pads, without the sensor lol. This car is worth 1,084 private at moment. How much did you pay bro? Steering controls only work with the original Vauxhall cd player bro.

    • @1BlueGhost

      Loads more than that 😎 brake pad sensor is easy just twist wires together and the warning goes away 👍
