The best video I have seen for a long time, and that is from a GMH person.

Hahaha....thats a p1sser. Im a huge Holden fan, and cant understand why you would put Chev badges on Commodores. Most ones Ive seen around my area are driven by mullet sporting, Southern Cross tattooed boguns. They have huge Aussie Pride stickers on the back windows, yet put Chev emblems on the bootlid....Freakin tools.

Makes me wonder, do the Commodores sold in the States as Pontiacs swap badges to Holden ones?

The big round holden logo in the centre of the grill spoils the look of the commodore IMO........I was just thinking that yesterday. Others must have the same opinion.

Yeah, but at least it's just the badge on the Holden, where as the other things just look horrid all over

OK, if you feel that way. I like the look of the VE, but get that big round silver thing out of the grill.

Yes, same with the GTO's/Monaro's. Although we need a different bumper, and hood for the Commodore.

Years ago a mates old man had a 78 Chevy Luv ute. Which was just a Izuzu/Rodeo 2wd ute powered by Gemini 1.8L engine. If it was badged as a Holden Rodeo he would have been lucky to get $1000. Thanks to the power of the 'Bowtie' he had a long queue of buyers and a $4000 sell price.

This rebadging of Commodore's is nothing new. Toyota starting doing it in the early 90's.

You could always put a Nissan badge on the VL.
