I am thinking of shortening the plastic surrounds by an inch so the alcantara fits the CSL console when it comes... is that the only difference Charlie? Or is it also narrower as well?Originally Posted by cakM3

the actual baseplate shape is different and the shape of the boot is also different Kris. When I put on the new boot, everything fit in perfect compared to the old boot. Hope this answers your question...yes, the CSL boot is a little narrower compared to the original boot.

I love those genuine CSL parts. I might slowly start acquiring some for my interior. I'd kill to have the door trim, but to me it's not worth removing my side air bags

Can I take a moment to scream?
So I did a valve cover gasket 2 weeks ago and since then got an SES, rough idling, and some interesting acceleration issues.
I take it into the shop today and got to try out the 535 for the first time (not bad).
Shop calls back and says that the cyclone seperator was failed and it destroyed the new VCG. They then said belts were almost gone and the plugs weren't the right kind. I told them to go ahead and fix everything and the bill ran me to $1473. Well the car still has some weird idling at stop lights on the way home so I'm going to call them back tomorrow and tell them the rough idle is still there but everything else feels better.
As it stand right now the control arm bushings are worn down too and when i jump on my brakes the steering wheel jumps slightly to the right... so that's my next future endeavor... for now my credit card is screaming for a break.

Sorry to hear your CCV took a shit and your new VCG was toast. At least your good for another 60k

I was thinking of getting the reinforcement plates as a temporary solution (they're only $25) to my right tower starting to mushroom. I will eventually get a brace but until I find one I want this will do. One question... Do they mount on the top or bottom of the tower, I can't find a picture with them installed.
Basically, can I use these on the wheel side and a brace on the engine side at the same time?
Capo di tutti capi
I think we went around about this, and decided they go under. Someone on here actually has these installed.

Holy crap!!!! I woulda shat myself... 2 times.
That bill is ridiculous! I guess thats nothing compared to what I was going to post...
I spilled pink lemonade powerade all over my seat because I thought it was the bottle sweating. My leather did this cool beading up thing which made it easy to clean up with a microfiber. Maybe I can attribute that to the new coat of Black Magic Leather Cleaner I applied the other day..
