centre console fitting

Postby matt188 on Tue May 29, 2007 1:19 pm

iv got a centre console and im about to fit it, although it looks like the air pipe will get in the way, does the pipe need to be modified as the air will be blowing straight at the centre console? what does everyones pipe look like behind the centre console?
thanks

The lowermost vent can be slid out of its housing. It does blow straight into the console, then the console directs it sideways at the driver and passenger's legs :)

All you need to do is to remove the grill off the end, it just pulls off
