Is someone able to give me a detailed list of the actual modifications required to do this (no it's not for me). I know there are a couple of threads on here in the build up section but I'm after all the info in one spot if I could.

And if it's a sedan you'll end up with a mismatched poxy looking thing. Just go the auctions and buy a BA if that's what you want. It will be cheaper.

that ute looks good but its just another BA to your average punter, whats the point of doing it to an AU? if thats what you want, spend the money and buy a BA and then whack the FPV kit on.
