The painters matched the colour to the can lid. But yeah just charcoal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drivers side is easy, same coathanger from top, towards the traction /fog switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you tkae glovebox out you can see up to the top just. Ill give it another go next weekend. Did you have to make the whole at the top bigger to fit all the cables??

Now just remove the top screw where the pod goes and you can GENTLY ease the icc forward about 10mm. Pull the top of the icc forward and it will sit out on the top mounting lugs and give you the room you need. I bent the coathanger with a slight curve outwards,put it down halfway then worked it towards the front. If you feel around from underneath you will feel it and be able to pull it down.
