Haha theres a wrecker over here that wanted 100 bucks for a trip computer from an EA. The buttons were pressed so much that they were white and there was a crack in the screen. When i commented on the condition of it all the bloke could say was "What? You want it to look pretty?" What a doosh!

Interesting you picked up on that Futura_XR,

Went to NSW and did my p1's using their free transfer system, you get ONE shot at it and they destroy your VIC licence regardless of the outcome.

Have installed a clock, picked it up from local ford parts dealer for $30, looks fantastic, with no fuss installation.

Could have had the TRIP Computer for an extra 10 but is practicly useless as i always run on gas, plus its more fiddly with installation.

Heres a pic of my clock:

Off topic,

Does that make it legal for you to drive in Victoria though?
AFAIK you must follow the licencing rules of the state you a driving in, ie must be 18 to have P's in Vic. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, however if I'm right then your driving in Vic without a valid licence.

Also you can only hold a interstate licence for 3 month unless you are part of the armed forces.

Madmax,

My NSW licence is valid in victoria for three months however that is only applicable if i take perminant residence here. As the classification of perminant residence is vague and I am constantly going between states to our residence in NSW it clears things up a bit.

I didnt know about the armed forces condition. Where did you hear this?

All I am aware of is that my licence is valid for three months, after which I will take up with Vic Roads.

I cant imagine havting to return to L Plates! That would be unbearable.

How much for this black buttoned clock philaddis?

Eligibility
If you have a current interstate or New Zealand (NZ) driver licence and you have been in Victoria for three months you must change your licence to a Victorian driver licence.

For up to three months after arriving, you can drive in Victoria if you have a current interstate or NZ licence, even if you are under 18 years of age.

Just grabbed that from vicroads which clears up the age issue, I am driving legally but only for 3 months!
