KSPEC have said they can supply the cobbie hole (centre console top storage compartment) for "$40-$50 including all the costs".

So I wonder if thats $40 or $50? That would be about £25-£30.

I've decided I'm brave enough to try ordering one (even if its $50), but will need to confirm the blanking plate comes out and the mounts are below first of all.....

I've emailed one of the larger UK dealers parts dept to see if they can supply too.

such a star

Are you brave enough to see if the panel comes off? Not quite sure how to do it without causing damage....

Cool. if it will come out easy then I will order one and see what comes.

I can't realky ask my dealer much at the moment, I've been nagging about delivery, they are probably fed up with me.

Hey Ray, sorry, Hippo. Have you got a set of feeler gauges?

I reckon using a medium/thin feeler gauge you could "sample" the way the cubbyhole cover has been fitted, by going round it gently noting where the grab points are.
