I've got several of these & will happily post out to you.

If you are looking to do the conversion then it can be a bit of a challenge - so how about a special price for a pair - one to experiment on & the other to do the final job with.

Manual or auto as I guess you would want the gear selector/lever as well.

I'll dig out a picture and post of the conversion - it looks very good TBH.

yes - BUT.

the mountings for yours is different to the woody one. You will need to cut yout existing one and make it fit into the holes of the woody one.

The screws mounting yours are behind your dials - just pull them off and you will see. You need to preserve the mounting points and glue the outer circles into the woody bit.

Not a job for the faint hearted as you will sacrifice your old surround. Sharp tools, a dremel and glue needed.

Off to photobucket now - back in a mo.

The end result is very good - let me post a pciture.

As it happens, this car is actually sitting doing nothing awaiting being sold/broken.

Its a shame as I virtually re-built it a couple of years ago. I then sold it to a mate who has fallen on hard times and needs to sell it but cant get motivated.

He might take an offer for the console - but would want yours in exchange.

Interested?

You could even take the whole car off his hands. Its a '98 2.5 V6 auto CD estate in solid red. Leather, Bose, Carin, Xenons and masses of work done.

Its in Luton and going nowhere!

Rob I'm in Spain so can't take the car.... but "Varche" from the forum here lives in Spain and has the same dash in walnut as yours for sale but with the digital dials. And actually you've answered a question for me if they can fit my car. From your pic I see they do. Awesome Wink
