In addition to the above, the basic 9C1 V6 Sedan and Wagon is also used by Non Police Govt Departments:ĬFA (Country Fire Authority) Vic. Vic also orders Berlinas in small numbers both V8 & V6. Vic occasionally order Acclaims with FE2. SA use 9C1 pack on Executives, sometimes optioning the Country Pack Suspension (which is FE2 with higher ground clearance.) On SA Acclaims FE2 is not used. Queensland Police use 9C1 V8 Option with Commodore SS and persist on demanding availability in Executive V8. (Victoria Police also use 9C1 V8 option on Commodore SS Ute). Victoria, SA and NSW Police only use 9C1 V8 option on Commodore SS Sedan. **Holden strongly recommends against the 9C1 Executive V8 due to the mismatch of engine power and 15 x 7 rims with 225 x 60 R15 tyres. Side Airbags (NSW Police now include these as mandatory). The following features are service and state specific variations fitted on request only:Įlectric Windows (ordered on some V6 Qld Police Sedans), In doing this, the vehicle looses the Speed Alert feature.ĩC1 gets 2 horns, the standard 400hz horn plus a more powerful 450hz horn. Any VT/VX/VY Commodore can have the "Police Mode" digital speed indication feature enabled under the Speedo dial with Tech 2 at a dealership. A larger higher capacity battery with 450 CCA and 115 min RC. I think you had better brush up on your Police car knowledge mate, they run 15 x 7's not 8's.Īll 9C1 pack Commodores have the following above what is on standard Commodores: ABS, FE2 Sports Suspension, LSD, 15" x 7" rims, 225 x 60 R15 tyres, Passenger's Airbag, Sump protector plate, additional Wiring Loom (supplying power for lights siren etc.), modified Transmission Gate (can manually select 2nd gear in auto box without depressing top of gear stick), Interior Dome Light with Incorporated Map Reading lights (as per Calais), Interior Lights Isolation Switch (isolates glovebox light, boot and interior dome and map reading lights), Front brake pads are Bendix Ultimate, Rear Brake Pads are standard "Akibono" made by PBR. Look out for VY S and VX/VY SS pack commodores and BA XR6Ts for main roads/backstreets, and if theres a boozebus, make sure you see them before they see you, and turn the other way if you think your in trouble (ie possible drink driving/unroadworthy) as TMU's patrol residential streets within a km radius of the boozebus, looking for people avoiding it. TMU's also dont like working with anything smaller than a 5ltr V8, especially for freeways. When I got done for speeding the car was going in the opposite direction to mine on a small 2 lane street, and he managed to pull a quick, clean as hell u-turn without breaking a sweat. Most unmarked cars ive seen on the road have been very clean drivers, when pulling cars over they seem to know there car better than the average hoon. If a suspected cop car is tailing you, look out for things like what type of clothing they are wearing (if its a suit then theres no chance), there sex (generally a middle aged woman with a child in the front isn't a cop ) and for people who pay attention to detail on stocko ford/holden interiors notice the driverside how the dash is oval shaped, with the lower sides at the centre column and the front right pillar? Well if the dash doesn't end up going down around the pillar side, its a mobile speed camera.Īnother attention to detail would be the police lights in the front bumpers breather hole (i dunno what its called, the place where the front mount takes in all the air), and look for the etag NOT to be in front of the rearvision mirror like it normally is - as police cars have police lights in a rectangle shaped box the the rear vision mirror mounted on the back of it (so pretty much look out for whether the rearvision mirror has the single mount bar holding it up, if you cant see one, chances are its a cop). Now ask yourself, why would a car with only a driver/and or passenger in the front need a shade on the rear windshield? Generally hiding the lights on a 'T' stand. Look for an extra dark patch either side of this light, generally they are police lights.īy day on sedans, as previously mentioned some (mainly VX and VY sedans ive seen) have the kiddy shade with the little suction cups that people buy for there kids during summer. Standard on F/H unmarked wagons are the usual brake light at the top centre of the rear window glass.
