Rav Posted February 20, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 Ok - done. Handbrake is as high as big ben! Under the console, there are connectors - white and black large block connectors - electric windows. There seems to be another that is connected to the lock mechanism for the storage cubby. I have one tiny two pin connector - now this looks exactly the same as the one that is connected to the handbrake, but that is already connected and working.... Any ideas?

Sanky Posted February 20, 2021 Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 Should be a 2 pin connector for the lock, and the ashtray light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rav Posted February 20, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 Brilliant @Sanky - I think that my car has the ashtray delete fitted at some point. Teaches me to document the tear down, to help when reassembling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunks Posted February 20, 2021 Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 I've had my console out a few times and it is currently out , but not once have i struggled to get it over the handbrake , I found it a lot easier removing the lower part of the front centre console Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rav Posted February 20, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 Almost all back together and I have spotted an issue. The centre console on the drivers side right at the very back is missing a piece of trim. I took this off my old car and it is 180 degree opposite to the part i need. I am wondering if the centre console i was sold was from a LHD car? The passenger side is fine and has been painted, but it seems a piece of black plastic push fit trim needs to be pressed in place here. I have part number: 986.552.089 and wonder if this is a RHD part for a LHD console? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rav Posted February 20, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 Ok, sorted - Parts manual says that the 986 552 089 part comes as a LHD or RHD part. Which side of the car should this feature on on a UK car, next to driver or next to passenger? Does anyone have the correct part - next to the driver seat that I can buy please?

map Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 Looks great - would be good to see it in sunlight with the roof down too. 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rav Posted March 5, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 Thanks @the baron and @mapthe sun seems a bit reluctant to make an appearance this year! @McDonald- thanks for the trick with imgur. It worked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
