Centre Console

I got myself a real bargain today went to my local scrappy (they are best for far ) and i searched the punto's and i found a beautiful Console in one

so i asked how much for the punto centre console? they mutter.. and they came up with £10 10 for a centre console! bargain!

here's some pics! i think it makes a real nice differene to the front.


cut myself alot with the glass in the car, but i was determined to get this baby £10 + some blood, im quite happy

Re: Centre Console

I did that to my S punto, and it made such a massive improvement when driving, it just feels more posh (lol)

I moved my stereo into the lower cubby hole and i find it doesn't skip at all now...

Re: Centre Console

There are two sets of air vents one lot by the gear stick and the other near the footwell. Well hot air seems to come out both of them, thats the main thing

Nice find there softwarez

Sotwarez?: how come you don't have the carpets coming up to the dash to hide the cave from behind the switches and radio? Like this:

Wink Re: Centre Console

well to be honest the answer seems simple to me

because it didnt have a centre console first so there are no carpets there, cos they never been.

do them vents hook up somewhere then cant see where..
