My 1992 pre-cat Griff is in for a replacement interior. Does anyone have or know of later Griff (500) gearbox/transmission bolsters for sale? Thanks very much.

Not the sort of thing that comes up very often but did find these a little while back.........



Not sure if console from earlier design can be used with later bolsters but were for sale as a set anyway.


Guess that well known TVR dismantler may have some but at a price !

Thanks very much for your reply. Unfortunately the early Griff’s gearbox bolsters don’t marry up too well with carpet leaving a scruffy edge allowing the glue to be seen (picture). Where as the later Griff’s had a refined detail in this area hence just the later bolsters are sought. I did see on EBay a whole replacement console, dash, bolsters the lot but not going to pay nearly £500 for it just for the bolsters 😞
Will keep looking, cheers

Yeah, that's what I have, stupid design, hence I bought the console and bolsters above to fit "one day"! wink
