(see my post that follows)

“8GEMV0000001” is not a valid (part of a) GEM VIN sequence.

“45982” is the last 5 digits of the VIN. In the case of GEMs it’s their sequence / number as they were completed. The GEM that followed that one had the last 5 of 45983, then 984, and so on.,

Here’s a post that might help a bit on what the rest of the VIN should look like.
