Removing Centre Consol in Exige S

[MrP80]

I'm thinking of getting my centre console trimmed through Lotus. It's got a few marks on it that won't come off, so I thought why not.

How hard is the cetre console, the part running between the seats and around the gearstick, to remove?

Is it a seat out job?

Car is an 06 Exige S

I haven't removed the one in my S, but I did have the one in my old Elise done (and it's near as dammit the same) - the dealer did it for me and it was fairly simple and relatively cheap too.

Have a look at Bell & Colvill's website, they have some fixed prices for that sort of stuff on their shop section I think it is.

I think it looks very good and will certainly look into it for my S

PS: Seats out is a really easy job anyway

Got the prices, seems a good price compared to what I was expecting.

Just wondered if there was an idiots guide to explain refit and removal. It only looks like a few fasteners, but wanted to check before I ripped it into a thousand pieces trying to get it off...

Unscrew gearknob. Unscrew fastenings at rear. Lift off.
