Hummels´s progress thread Astra GTC 2,0CDTi
#1
Hi

For some reason, that I don´t understand, my GTC was from factory not ordered with factory LED rear lamps despite having front LED DRL and AFL light.
I had to rectify that mistake. Price from dealer was 850£ + 70£ wiring. I managed to get it all for 450£ with wiring as my workplace imports Valeo parts from France.

I also bought HappyBlue OBD module so I can make rearlights and numberplate light not to be shown with bulb warnings in the display. With HappyBlue module you can also alter alot of settings via Bluetooth and an app on your phone, fx. when it is doing a regen you can get it shown on the mid-level display when started and again when finished. Also bought LED bulbs for front foglights, cabinelights, glovebox and boot.
Corsa D OPC sideindicator mouldings, Eibach Pro springkit, ashtray/bin, shelf for glovebox to organize better have also been purchased.
 
I also found a secondhand DTE V3 pedalbox for 50£ and found 8pcs. 19" five spoke wheels from the 5 door version for only 270£. I have ordered Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4 235/45R19 wintertyres for them.
Mine was not ordered with factory navigation either, only the CD400 and then previous owner have replaced it with a RoadCommander like the Icebox and ESX-VN709. I have bought the OEM sharkfine and plan to change it for the normal aerial. I know it´s not made for AM/FM radio but hope by replacing the radio plug I can use it for radio signal.


My LED´s arrived.


LEDs OEM




Wiring for OEM LEDs




Without LEDs




With LEDs





Corsa D OPC sideindicator mouldings and 20" Irmscher TurboStar.




HappyBlue module


I found a secondhand DTE V3 pedalbox for 50£



But have not yet got around to fitting it, But time will come.



I have also bought a new Steeringwheel, brand new with white stitching for OPC/VXR





I had a little play with the HappyBlue and US light




But turned it off again as it´s not legal here in Denmark. Sidelight must only be white light not yellow, as it can make others believe you have your full indicator light on and need help.


I managed to fit my new OPC steeringwheel. Soooo much nicer than the standard Sport/SRi "leather" steering wheel.





New thing is on the way



Found the AeroPack roof spoiler version 2 with the 2 legs between the spoilers. I am so happy and are waiting for it to arrive.


Also have the winterwheels ready for the season.



Looking forward to test the Michelin PA4´s as the review´s are very good for this tyre.



And finally it arrived. I am in love. Now I am saving up for the AeroPack sideskirts. Hoped I can get it all bought and ready with paint for the summer season.











Wintertyres is on. Looking good, if I may say so myself.
