I installed a g8 seat in my ppv (a 7/11 build car) and it had an odd vestigial striker that didn't have the hoop, just a flat plate bolted on. I had to get the one from the g8

I've seen that Maloo cruising around downtown Orlando! Pretty sure we've passed each other going down Robinson. Cool.

Hmm, our car came with the striker, and I think I got one with our G8 rear seats. I guess I need to find that and see if it needs a new home.

Bill,

Have you had the chance to move forward on this yet?

I need to order the striker & cover, and was wondering if these have been confirmed to fit or not.

I left my car without the striker cover, have other priorities and it doesn't bother me much without it.

Thanks of the update, Bill.

I went ahead and ordered the striker and cover, so once I receive them, hopefully I can provide confirmation that they fit and work as Holden intended.

Received and installed the 2015 SS striker and striker cover I had ordered, since my car had G8 seats installed, (but no striker).

As best as I can tell, both parts fit and function just as Holden /GM intended.
