Hi Everyone,
I am new to the forum - please be gentle

A couple of weeks ago I had my Vectra written off, as a result of which I am now a happy Astra J, 2012, 2.0CDTI sri owner ( well - will be on Saturday when I pick it up! ).
I must say, car is lovely, but missing a few "essentials".

I've placed an order for the M072 Android HU ( S160), and already own an Inphase USW10 underseat sub so will get those fitted in spare time.


I would also like to retro fit a reversing camera and with no previous knowledge I have the following questions:

1. What kind of a camera do I need? I've read somewhere that the J's cameras can go into the boot handle ( Don't want to drill in the bumper + I think it will be easier to wire it to the reverse light, but can't find one anywhere that would look suitable ). A link would be nice if anyone would be so kind.

2. Not sure what this feature is called, but will this camera adjust the "marking lines" as I turn the wheels?


Many Thanks!
Patrick

Good morning, Gerry here in Glasgow. Despite being 53 I picked up what is only my 2nd car, yesterday, (only took and passed my test Dec 14). It's a red 63 plate, Astra J GTC 1.4, absolutely delighted. I'll be looking to put in a new head unit with Bluetooth and navigation at some point, and have seen some very useful and interesting threads on vxoc, on the subject.
Cheers
Gerry

Hey everyone, as the subject says Im new here. Real names Craig but some how the nick name Hank has stuck. Currently owned my 2015 Astra GTC 2.0 CDTI for 1 year and starting to modify it. Any help is appreciated. Pride myself on keeping her clean (yes I named  my car). main changes I have in mind are new alloys, been trying to find a air suspension kit with little luck so far, so might settle on coil overs. Looked at some body modifications but leaving that till later. As it stands the now all Iv currently done is a cat back exhaust from pipe dynamics in Leven. Looking foreword to hearing from yous 

Im looking for something to go as a sunstrip but dont want to intrude on the rain sensors or auto light sensors, any help?

Does anybody know the part number for the headlight dust protectors/caps for a 2015 GTC?

Thanks

This is my Opel GTC Sport, from when opel tried for 12 months to make it in Aus, it's a full spec astra with full leather, navi 900, 1.6 
Turbo. the only things its missing is AFL's and Adaptive suspension. So far ive only fitted front mud flaps to it (modified genuine ones). next mods include Retrofit TPMS, and rear mud flaps.

Hi [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES]

Anyone know if there's a way to fix a small, paper cut style cut in my leather rear bench?

What you will need,
I used dental floss but string will do and a bowl of warm soapy water


First get a length of floss and put under the badge and work back and to


It should come off quite nicely and reveal the foamy sticker that held it on

What i did was ran it under my thumb and it should peel off

Remove all the badges you want and wash with the warm soapy water and your done!
