It looks Fine in the car.
But any bohemothness is overcome by the fact that soon I'll be able to put 4 drinks in my car and drive.
We'll see how it goes, but sticks very close to the manual shifter.
Ah well worse comes to worse AMC'ers can buy it

Jealous:P
Considering the rest of the interior is about 3.5km's away, sort of hard to tell, but inside it looks fine...
Besides never got it for looks, got it for functionality

hell yeah.....so freeken cool.
Color is a pretty good match, keeping mind it came from cars like 10 years apart, bottom part of the lid is a close match to the actuall console but the bit i died black is a bit more "obvious" but LESS obvious then when it was grey ..

$40US plus $US post.... $300AUD... which is the value of your own money, which is like a weeks pay?
Somehow I don't think people would pay you back that $300 bro... Your loss I suppose.

Probably not $300 mate but I'm not fussed.
Having it is cool, always wanted one.
Next thing to buy, spare manual gearbox :D

Well, it's got cup holders so that's good. Show us a pic of it in the car.
Looks a bit weird with a double stacked arm rest aye. Does it get in the way when you drive? Looks like it would make your left arm sit high?
Nice job on changing the colour btw.

Spanks, Shoe dye is worth its weight in gold.
Yeah sits a bit high, If the car worked I'd probably let you know how it goes. I know Mohit had trouble with his getting in the way so yeah. Cant actually sit in the car unless i roll it out of the shed and cbf lol Maybe tomorrow :D got a ton of work to do as you can see.

Hehe yeh at first I was like ohh thats pretty crap its made to open for left hand drive, then I saw it opens both ways, magic!
I would be doing anything to get one of these, but since I managed to find the Diamante dash cup holders I will resist :P Two is enough for me, and looks like you lose a little bit of storage space though.
Nice find though, its nice to have a unique especially factory part that noone else does.

DUnno why, but most cars after 1996 came with cupholders standard, guess it was an evolutionary thing.

Out of the car it looks a bit high but may look better when in the car and between the seats.
Just another thing that separates your car from almost all the other 2nd gens.
...and the most important thing... IT HAS CUP HOLDERS !!! WOO-HOO !!! :bowdown: :dancin:

Cups weren't invented before 1996... That must be the explanation, why would you need holders for something that doesn't exist... hmmm...

Ohh, well I thought the storage space looks smaller than the standard glovebox, but just realised, do u still have the bigger glovebox underneath as well? That would be pretty cool
