Interested in what type of mods people have now done to their VE's. This I'm sure ranges from minor cosmetic changes to the big beefy stuff.

Mine are very very minor - but suit my needs - brake calipers painted red with VHT paint and lego bricks hidden behind V8 logo. Other than that (and tints) she's stock standard.

Just gave it some more thought........................Do you mean that you have a V8 logo covering the in-dash display on the SSv that looks like lego?

I'd be 99% sure thats what he means. JKGMH has some nice replacement gauges that sit on top of the centre speaker... There is a thread under general non powertain somewhere.

I think if you jsut head into the 'my ride' section you will see most of the VE members here and their mods..

Correct - just covered the lego bricks up - and replaced with a V8 logo badge - pretty low tech stuff - but more advanced than the lego bricks.

Will check out the my ride section too - thanks

Man after my own heart - exactly like that - and I thought I was alone!.

The badge provides more info than the original dials ever did.

Are the dials above an aftermarket fit? If so any details?

Thanks
