I have a 2001, is it possible to get the leather console with the cup holder from a 2002? would it fit?

thanks.

 

Yup.

The center consoles are the same for MY00-03, except the ring around the shifter was a bit darker on the first 2 years.
Design-wise, they are the same.

There's even one for sale in the other forum. Bid is only $25 on E-bay. No, I am not the seller.

 

if you want the leather part check out ricks2k.com. He sales the leather part and you can keep your stock plastic center console part with the cup holder.

 

otherwise its like $400 from honda. or like $340 from Majestic Honda.

 

thanks a lot guys! my center part is all scratched up... so i want to replace it, but why not with the leather... hehehe! thanks again!

 

Hey Dook.. have you looked into taking the center console off? Is it a pretty difficult procedure? I ask, cause I have an 01, too and the metal part around my shifter is scratched (probably like you were saying about yours). That thins scratched so damned easily..I think is is a design flaw and Honda should fix it out of warranty for free (JK, it seems like everyone wants Honda to keep their cars looking and running like showroom for the rest of their lives).. Anyway, I haven't looked into replacing it yet, cause at first glance it looked really involved and like the leather console would bre pretty expensive. If you (or anyone else for that matter) has successfully done it, can you comment on how easy it was, prices, etc. I don't think I want Rick's console.. Isn't that jsut a cover that fits over the carpeted console? Does it actually look pretty good up close? If you guys have that one and like it, maybe I'll consider getting that one.

 

Actually the ricks console cover looks really good. Plus you can customize the color of the leather and stitching. As far as the ring around the shifter, use rubbing alcohol to take off the crap paint and you'll have a great looking chrome ring.

 

dcak, taking off the whole console does look pretty hard... cause it wraps all the way to the back, so i think i am just going to replace the plastic part...


s2000raj, i tried doing that, but took forever for the paint to come off, so i used an SOS pad, HAHA more scratches....

 

 

is the Honda OEM center console really leather or some fake leather, leatherette, vinyl?
