    Default VXR rear bumper insert - Where from?

    I'm getting a duplex exhaust for my Vectra CDTi and need to get the insert which has the gaps for both tail pipes. I have seen on other posts that this is around £40 from dealers. There are however no Vauxhall dealerships near me that I know of and after looking online I can't seem to find anywhere that is offering this part. Could anyone direct me to one online that I can order it from.

    Also, I have the exterior pack and read that it can be very difficult to replace the old insert with the new one. I think I also saw step by step instructions on how to do it but can't seem to locate it now? Any advice would be appreciated!

    Cheers!

    Thats your closest two. You basically need to get underneath, remove the plastic rivets that are on both ends behind the rear wheels and pull it off. Its a little tricky and I ended up cutting some of the old clips off my old insert to make it easier. There are then two "legs" that stick down, one either side that need to be cut off. Then its just a push fit back on. i also drilled the ends to reuse the plastic rivets.

    Edit: just say you have the XP kit, I believe this may need to come off before fitting as it fits over the insert so ignore some of the above.

    You can order online from Autovaux, its where I get mine from and it also worked out cheaper than the dealer, but in your case it might be a bit more due to postage.
