Aux Console

Nice and therapeutic one to do whilst waiting for the ECU and Clocks, gives me time to rest my back as well as 90% of this was done indoors.

I purchased the lower dash panel from GBS, its made out of aluminium and it saves me having to fabricate something myself.  First job was to mark up the centre line and where I wanted each button to go:



A quick test of my hole driller on some scrap confirmed the fit and finish:


Onto the real thing....gulp.....and fhew, all fine without any drama:



Using the same leatherette I used for the dashboard I used some carpet glue and stuck it on - after much faffing about I am really pleased with the finish:


Out comes the scalpel:


And the final product:



Chuffed with that!  Hopefully that is the fiddliest part of the tunnel cover, I need to remember to cut out the leather for the pre-drilled holes ready for the dome head bolts.
