JHP gauges (http://jhp.com.au/g8partsdirect/G8SportsGauges.htm)

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.

wtf is with gm...it probably cost them more to design a new center section that to just include what they were already putting there in the holden version

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.

those look good in red but not worth it if u have to change other stuff


590+97+127+127+55+80


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.
