Hi all

I was wondering if someone could please point me in the right direction

I have a mate that has a Silver SSV with all black interior, his little monsters (Kids) have really screwed up the back seat of the car so he was looking into reuposltering the seat but came across a two front buckets and rear seat in perfect condition upposlstered with the Voodoo (Blue inserts)

One off the guys on this forum has a Silver SSV with the Voodoo inserts and Voodoo dash which the mate really really likes, i was wondering if anyone could tell me where he can find somewhere to do the dash colour conversion?

I must admit i love the Voodoo and black interior myself

The dash pad is one big single piece. There's a fair bit of work replacing it.
Think in the area of $400 plus several hours labour.

Lower sections valued at $140 for the glovebox and $90 for the cover under steering wheel. the Red Upper piece was worth $330 late last year.

It would look nice......

If you want to go for the HSV look as arcee did with his the list prices are $146 and $98, both plus GST.

Hi guys

I spoke to the guys at Kevin Denise today and got quoted on changing the black dash pad, the glove box and under the steering wheel to the Voodoo plastics

Wait for it $1400

$1400 ???? That's at least 40 kw if spent right ! I'd keep lookin around myself, there are always other options out there :)

:eek: As I said above - just go for the HSV look as arcee did on his SSV. Many people feel it's a better look anyway! Significantly reduced cost of parts and only 5 - 10 minutes simple job to do. :goodjob:

Hi Wonky

Yeah seen you post on that but could not find any photos of the install, would you have a link handy?

Thanks

Just had a look and arcee hasn't got any pics or write up on his ride yet. Just have a look at www.carsales.com.au for E-series GTS etc with the multi coloured dash if you haven't got a real one to look at. I actually like them better than the full treatment.
