Those audio CONSOLES have finally dried up.  
I recall when they retailed for around $100 and you could still get them from the dealers here in the US.  
Ppl seem to think it was a “JDM only” option, they were also an option for us here in the states.

It is handy to have the extra space and I think it makes the interior flow a little better.

today i didnt get as much accomplished as i thought i would lol. i put the front seats in, seat belts and the sun visors. i couldnt find the little clips that the visors clip into. i searched the shop high and low and they are gone ha. luckily i had a set at the house 🙂 i got distracted helping dad buddy fix an accord that was hit pretty hard in the B pillar. that was way more interesting ha.

the other day i wire wheeled and painted (rust-o gloss black) my front sway bar thanks to andy!

then just a little while ago once it cooled down, i wire wheeled my shift linkage. that is now primed and has one coat of black on it.

looking good man. You will probably have to sand out where your bearings and bushing go though in order to get good fitment.
