Irmscher Headlamp Eyelids


The pair of irmscher eyelids bought from www.lmfvauxhall.com with an unpainted condition. These eyelids made of ABS. I took the eyelids for painting to match my Nabira body color. The eyelids came with adhesive and installation tool.
Be carefull when working with the supplied adhesive as it can easily smear the lid if unproperly handle. Indeed, you'll need thinner (non organic) to clean the smear if happens. However, don't excessively clean the smear as it can damage the painwork.

Irmscher Fuel Lid Cover

Irmscher fuel lid cover with inner carbon fiber. I bought this cover from www.lmfvauxhall.com and fix it right away when i received the packaging.

Auto Cruise System

The standard imported Chevrolet Nabira distributed by Hicomobil for Malaysian market comes without an Auto Cruise System. This Auto Cruise System is described as Drive by Wire technology and this option that can be installed into Nabira like plug & play unit.
With Tech2 and programming, the Auto Cruise System can be enabled.

The auto cruise unit can be installed by replacing the current signal & high beam stalk (as shown on the above photos) with the auto cruise stalk which incorporating all the signal & high beam function into a common stalk which is the auto cruise stalk ( as per photos belows).


Speedometer Rings


Installed these speedometer rings in June 2007. The rings bought from armaturenringe www.armaturenringe.de in germany. This premium Tachoringe Opel Zafira requires no adhesive in installing as they were designed to "click" perfectly into speedometer housing.
The installation of this rings required the HU and speedometer dashboard to be dismantled before these rings could be installed in their place. It took approximately 30min to install them. In the end, it is a very satisfying result.

Air Cond Knob Chrome Ring


By using 3M double sided tape instead of the supplied ELCH P1 adhesive, these rings are easily fix onto my nabira air cond knob. The air cond knob chrome ring is a product of opel/vauxhall i-line by Irmscher tuning. The part no. i3217020. The unit was bought from lmfvauxhall,UK. http://www.lmfvauxhall.com/.
