dakotahchore Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 I know people do custom consoles with the original drivetrain, but I have a KA swap thus my shifter is positioned differently.. anyone know what consoles work well with this setup ? Quote Link to comment

Boaty Posted September 1, 2012 Report Share Posted September 1, 2012 I've been off-and-on looking for center consoles as well. I saw a KA swapped 4-door 510 with a center console from I believe a 98 Civic - looked pretty good in there. The front of the console (heater box side) is always going to have a dead space that you'd have to fill with something. I'm sure a fabber could come up with SOMETHING out there. But it looked like it fit really nice. Believe he had the arm rest and such as well. @ Skib - You're right, there are a lot of topics on center consoles... but I think a consolidated thread with pics and fitment info would be great. C-C-C-Combo Breaker thread?! 1 Quote Link to comment
TheGingerD21 Posted September 5, 2012 Report Share Posted September 5, 2012 Saw one the other day with a Subaru console. Looked really nice. Quote Link to comment

dakotahchore Posted December 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Check my build thread! Got a center console from a manual 92 Ford Escort... fits PERFECT with a KA swap. Quote Link to comment

dakotahchore Posted December 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 my sister has an escort, and from my experience, those cupholders SUCK Found that out... I have some cups that fit nice and snug but they are really shallow. I'm modifying the dash soon with ABS sheets and bondo to join it to the radio bezel and house a double din stereo; gonna try and improve the cupholders as well. Quote Link to comment
