    Series 2 iQ upgraded, USB location and size question

    Where in the console, if I might ask? Like I said, mine's in the console box. Is it by the cubby under the radio (there was a socket for a lighter there), in the top surface somewhere around the shifter, or what? I've been looking at Google pictures of interiors and many look like they were...

    Series 2 iQ upgraded, USB location and size question

    I had an iQ installed in my converted-to-Commodore '08 G8 about two years ago. I am still questioning where Holden put the USB port on S2 cars. I had my guy put mine in the console box, which sucks; it's hard to get to, especially while driving. I had him put a USB charging port where the...

    LED Daytime Running Lights

    I got a set of LED DRL fog surrounds off ebay about a year and a half ago. Problem I had was that they only came on with the parking lights and it's illegal to drive with only your parking lights in California. I don't know if having the fogs on plus parking lights or the DRLs plus parking...

    Key not come out

    This has been an issue with some G8s here in the US. The G8Board has a thread on solutions. <Key stuck in ignition. - Pontiac G8 Forum: G8 Forums - G8Board.com>. I know I replaced one of the relays in the kick panel fuse box, but no longer remember which one of them it was.

    VE vs. VF Boot

    Apparently, Chevrolet is now selling a Holden-branded cargo tray for the SS. I'd like to have one for my G8-->SV6 (MY08) but I don't want to order something that will not fit. Is the boot floor the same size and shape on the VE as the VF? I have seen pictures of both side-by-side and they look...

    VE "Boot Liner" or "Boot Mat" where to buy?

    I live in the USA and have a VE Commodore (OK, rego says it's a G8). I am curious as to whether the boot floor of the VE and VF are the same. Apparently, Chevrolet has just started selling a genuine Holden boot liner for the SS, which is a VF Commodore (maybe SSV Redline?) with really ugly (IMO)...

    Using a VE Calais Radio in a G8

    Thanks, Zerone_V. First off, the reason I bought the radio (and that was over a year ago) was the date display. I really dislike the US "middle-endianess" practice of dating. That means we start at the middle end, rather than the big or little end of a date -month day year. I prefer day month...

    Using a VE Calais Radio in a G8

    IF (and that's a big "if") I can find somebody to re-green it, is there any reason a radio I bought on eBay from a VE Calais would not work in my G8? I know Oz and the US use slightly different frequency separations, but that's workable (and changeable). It really only matters on AM and I don't...

    VE Fuse Box Diagram

    Thanks. I know that isn't the problem, since the original DRLs work as designed. The problem I have is that my car, being US DOT spec, is set up different from the Australian VE which these eBay LEDs were designed for. I know the headlights have been changed to meet US specifications and the...

    VE Fuse Box Diagram

    Thanks. That doesn't really have what I need, but now I know the fuse number I want identified. From your diagram, I need to identify fuse F41, which is marked "Lo Beam DRL" on my car. I bought some LED DRLs on eBay Australia and the instructions are not hard to follow. However, all US...

    VE Fuse Box Diagram

    I would appreciate it if someone could post a photo of a diagram for the engine compartment fuse box. I am trying to figure out the differences, if any, between my G8 fuse box and the native Australian fuse box.

    How to Change Date to Day-Month, Rather than Month-Day

    First, I should tell you that I am in the USA and can't ask Holden anything. I tried and they said "...we can only provide assistance with Holden vehicles inside Australia and New Zealand." It's a long, impossible drive to either <grin>. I have a 2008 Pontiac G8 (Base) that I bought used. I...

    E-Code (ECE compliant?) VE headlights

    I am trying to find out if Holden makes an E-code, i.e., one that meets EU lighting requirements, for a LHD VE Commodore. Please note that this for a LHD car, not a typical RHD. I know Holden exports, or has exported, LHD Commodores to the Middle East, but the Middle East probably doesn't have...
