Holden VE / 2009 Pontiac G8 Data Plate - LS3, M10 Trans, FE3, G84 Axle Codes

This photo shows an embossed metal vehicle identification/data spec plate riveted to a body panel (photographed in a dark engine bay or door jamb area). The plate lists the vehicle's build codes: Model VE8EK69-, Body Number 6G2EP57W09L311763, Trim code 51I, A/C code CJ2, Paint code 554N, a plant/build code reading ZEC08 / BSI, suspension code FE3, engine code LS3, transmission code M10, and axle code G84. From this plate a reader can identify the vehicle's original factory specification: its trim and paint codes for matching interior and exterior finishes, and its driveline option codes (LS3 engine, M10 transmission, G84 axle, FE3 sport suspension). The 'VE' model prefix and the body number beginning 6G2EP57W09L indicate this is a Holden VE-platform vehicle (the body number format corresponds to a 2009 Pontiac G8/Holden Commodore build), not the 1996 Ford Bronco to which the image was attributed. The plate is fully legible except for one partially obscured label on the left edge of two rows where the photo crops the plate.
