Centre Console

[Mike FR+]

Hi all

Decided that the tired, scratched centre console had to go or have something done to it. So I bought a spare from the dealers (£11) but gave the old one a bit of a spruce up. I will be fitting it tomorrow. Here are a couple of pics, let me know what you think:

Exactly the question I was going to ask, as I need a replacement!

Why not just remove your own and spray it then put it back together?

fair point, but maybe the original was too badly scratched and at the alleged £11 who cares

It would seem so - http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=240406
Worth getting one as a spare so you can return it to standard at a later date, or even have a few different coloured ones, bit like a smart car

iam going to black leather trim mine i think

Yeah they are £11 from any main dealer, not too bad IMO. I did mine gloss black, looks pretty good, prefer it to the silvery colour. I have a spare if I want to revert back to standard.

Looks like its standard fitted, good job there mate

 

[Mike FR+]

Chhers. I wanted it to look like it was meant to be there, thats why I didnt go for a completely different colour change and stuck with gloss black. I like OEM, thats pretty much what my car is but with a few tricks up its sleeve lol.

Looks good mate, have you thought about doing the stereo facia adaptor too?

 

[Mike FR+]

nah, I like it as it is. I dont want too many shiny bits in the centre console, I like the fact that it does look as though the centre console seperates it all
