DIY: Floating Console Modification

[Tomwa]

God that really does look so much better. =( guess I gotta order a 40 dollar tray I'm gonna cut up and take the dash apart again.

 

[seriously]

Can someone post another side profile picture of this lit up at night? We kind of have one, but I have a feeling it's brighter than we've seen so far (on this thread).

I don't have one on hand. but I can tell you, in general it's not very perceivably bright. Maybe it's 'better' on the passenger side for us US folks but my recollection is it is a very soft blue-ish light. It's very subtle and I have to be reminded it's there.

I wanted a bit more light over the mod too. I added a small light that plugged into the USB port right above the tray.
Comes with a bunch of different colors. put one in my center console too.

No, you have to cut an opening in the tray and the rubber liner in the shape of the black spacer the shifter sits on top of.

You also have to cut a slit at the back of the tray so the shifter “arm” fits through it.

The automatic tray uses the same 3 bolts up front and 2 more at the back. Rivnuts are already pre installed in the chassis so you’ll need 2x 20mm M6x1.0 bolts.

The bolts for the shifter base are 25mm M6x1.0

Hey Cilantro. Killer work adapting the auto tray for this mod. Quick question: the new bolts you list, are those required for install of the new tray or did you just provide that in case anyone wanted to also swap to the nicer style? Wondering if I can just use the existing hardware for initial installation and then change over to nicer bolts later.

You can use all the existing hardware. No new parts (except tray)
