i have a real CF dash kit. if you are interested let me know. it's just sitting here, never been used. and btw, my kit is for manual, it'll still work if you have an auto. the only part that won't fit is the area around the shift gate. oh, and did i say i'm willing to sell it cheap?

 

[scrubaru]

how much are we talking about? and do you have a pic of the kit? how many pieces are there? I may be interested.

 

[JZ oo7]

i'll take pics of it when i can. i have the kit stored away at work.

 

[scrubaru]

has the kit ever been used or did you just not like it?

How did the kit fit your car? Did the pieces fit contours at all? Post some pics... I am interested in seeing a good looking dash kit.

I'll try to get some pics up soon. Every piece fit good. The only piece I wasn't really thrilled about that could've been a little wider was the center heater vents. Now that I think of it I could've heated the pieces up a little more and stretched them....oh well. Everything else looks good though.
The kit had the following pieces:

Upper dash vent (driver)
Upper dash vent (pass)
Vent (driver)
Vent (pass)
Center Vent
Gauge surround
Radio
Left side of radio
Right side of radio
Center console
drivers side control
passenger side controls
cup holder
ash tray
rear ash tray
rear driver side door control
rear passenger side door control
Auto or Manual shifter surround

I think that was it here's at least one of the pics it was in my console switch mod thread. In the pic you can see the center console surround and part of the shifter surround.

Hey scrubaru, I actually posted a response to your other thread about the center console switch. That thing is damn cool. Let me know where I can get one and any other details on the install, if there are any.

As for the dash kit, the picture that it shows on the website for the dashkit is the same picture that is used to describe many of the dashkits available in ebay auctions for a little less. I wonder if they are made by the same manufacturer..? I was wondering though, do you have a coupe or sedan? The kit seems to be made for a 4 door, and I am not sure if there are any differences in the door pieces, since I have a 2 door.

They actually shipped me pieces for a 2door and a 4door. I think the only difference was the door control pieces. I think on my credit card bill the company is called Alka Plus out of brooklyn NY. I'll put a pic up of the two pieces that I didn't use. I'm pretty sure they would fit your car. I'll get those pics on here tomorrow along with the information for that switch I installed. As far as that switch goes when you pop the piece out that is in there now you'll find a little nub in the corner that prevents the space from being a perfect rectangle. All you need to do is trim that so everything is square then just take a rasp and shave down the inside a little at a time. It might take a few times but it's better to take off a little instead of too much. Like I said mine was to the point where it just took a little bit of force to seat it and then I was done. I'll get that info up tomorrow.
