Hi guys
Had a bit of aa result yesterday, I bought a GT Silver centre console. Its not genuine but had been sprayed.
I fitted it last night and it looks the nuts - a doddle to do as well!
To all those a bit nervous about stripping it out, don't be. I am a mechanical moron and as long as you have the correct size Star tools you will be fine. I used the Short Shift fitting guide from BM Racing.
£600 factory option, £190 from Douglas Valley for one from a scarpper or £45 for a sprayed one from ebay. You decide!
Just need to see how long the paint lasts.......... :grin:
Cheers

I didn't take any 'during' photos as the missus was calling me in for dinner - its like being a child! "You are always playing with that bloody car etc etc "
So here is a before and after shot. Hope you agree it looks much better!
Looks good! :thumb:
Does anyone know the process of getting the plastic trims painted...
Is there a special process for painting the plastic etc?
- What the paint be different type then usual?
Thinking of getting the bits sprayed to silver.... as shown..
The lecky window switches need to come out, no big deal but true to form I got all excited and stuck them back in - forgetting to test them.
This morning when I got in the car, I tested them - they work, but I put them in back to front. They are at least on the correct side but you press the up switch to lower the window and down to raise it.
To be honest though I can't be arsed taking it apart again to swap them over!
:frustrated:
