    Thanks. On eBay. Australian supplier. Wasn’t cheap, $450 with freight. I think it was down to one left (so they say!) which made me act.

    I rang my local Holden dealer to book my VF calais 6.0 in for its 150,000 km service....$1150!! They said new spark plugs, plus transmission service with fluid change, etc Has anyone used a non-Holden service place for a major service like this?

    hi, what brand head unit did you replace your myLink with? I'd heard the HVAC prevented pulling the original equip out... Did it mess with seat heaters or HUD etc? tks
