FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Does this include the metal dipstick?
No. This is the handle upgrade only. It is designed to be fitted to your existing factory metal dipstick blade.
Will it fit my VZ Thunder Ute?
Yes, it is compatible with all VZ models, including the 6.0L L76 V8 and the 3.6L Alloytec V6 versions.
How do I keep it shiny?
A quick wipe with a clean cloth is usually enough. For a deep shine, any standard aluminium or metal polish will maintain the mirror finish indefinitely.
