This mod is for people who want the empty upper storage bin in a 2009 to be gone, but don't want to add gauges or a GPS trim package in its place.
These guys also want the curved door lower Calais (full sized storage compartment or smokers pack).

It's all Calais components from the windscreen back to the cupholders.

looks good. Do you have the 5 gauge pod?

Yes it gives a smooth elegant look I think.
If people with 2008's really hated their Ataris with a passion and didn't want alternative gauges or GPS they could do the same as above.

No. It's an aftermarket invention by some guy. You can find it on this forum by searching.
You'll still need either Deal 31A or Deal 31B to install it into a G8.

It looks really good in person and definitely brings the interior up a few notches. Highly recommended!

So we lose the center speaker, or is there a grille that is not visible in the pictures provided ?

There is a slightly larger grille there than before and it is not as recessed into the console.
Pic does make it look like a solid piece but it is ventilated with lots of small holes.
