Side View of a LH Console




Daz

I reckon this one is LH then comparing side views. Just needs an armrest and compartment lid. Are these easily available?

Can I convert an Auto LH Centre console over to Manual???? What is required?? Can the stick boots still be purchased?

[ReplicarSLR]

Rares do the manual shifter surround and boot, although not in woodgrain only in black and silver surround. Buy the black one and inlay some woodgrain (vinyl or similar) like the originals were done.

You will probably need the boot that bolts to the floor under the console boot too, it also comes with the lower boot that goes in under the foor to stop crap getting into the shifter mechanism.

Ah thanks. I didnt even know there was meant to be another boot underneath!!!

I wont be needing the woodgrain stuff. The console will be getting painted Chamois.

Cheers.

You sir are a legend! Thanks heaps for those pics!

Hey Brad I've got a new boot surround for an LH (the black plastic bit the boot attaches to)

I just don't have the boot, cause I was to tight to buy another for my SS surround an used it

[hanra]

Managed to get another console from Western Australia of all places..... And it got here in one piece this time...! What a surprise!

Ive already taken the arm rest in to the upholsterer to re-cover using my Nylex Chamois Vinyl. Looks like this console was brown at some point in its life? Then its been painted black?

I thought they all started life black and then were painted the various colours?

Will need a few bits for it, flip up lid, shifter boot assy. Gotta figure out how to strip the paint off it so I can re-paint it Chamois. Should come up looking nice I hope.

Should LH consoles have an ash tray at the back of the console?

[hanra]

Yeah I was thinking that to. This one has that wavy bottom profile to suit Torana floor pan. But just curious about the ash tray. Thanks mate.
