That's the HSV triple gauge pod, standard in all the VE HSV cars.


You have to change all the centre stack trim parts from the windscreen back to behind the gear shifter to install it in a G8.

Ummm no.
The G8 center section including the atari gauges is identical to Holden SV6,SS,SSV & Ute. It's called the "Sports Console". They didn't design a new console just for the G8.

Holden SSV

Holden SV6

Holden SS



Other designs include:

Holden Calais


Holden Omega


Holden Caprice


Holden Statesman




HSV (not Holden) have this

yea that is not worth it. its a joke that it costs that much.

i will leave it stock for that price.

if someone handed me the cash right now i would laugh and invest it instead of paying that much for gauges for a car that isn't that fast anyways.

Genuine GM/Holden/HSV parts are genuinely expensive, but they usually look and work the best.
