Default JDM Carbon Fiber Shifter Console - How to make it fit USDM Tegs?

Anyone here knows how to make this fit our ride?





Anyone want to trade? I need one that fits a USDM Teg. I know someone here as a USDM Type Shifter Console And wanted to trade me.

I really want to make this fit.

I've said this before...and I'll say this again... there is NO way to make it fit our USDM tegs ( unless you do a RHD conversion ).

here's a write up I did on the topic....there are several pieces you can take off of that to put onto your teg...but other than that.....nothing else will go on ( cf look shift plate, driver's side vent, cig lighter cover )

also, take notice to the USDM console and its shape. You should immediately notice WHY the JDM console WILL NOT FIT.

Well it will fit, as in the two screw behind the shift plate. But as far as it matching your dash, there is no way.

that's basically what everyone means when they ask "will it fit?"

From the picture, it looks like the center console is from a usdm itr?

wrong. Its from a JDM one. I know because I've owned several of them before. And I don't care who says otherwise...but this will NOT GO ON ANY left hand drive integras ( that is without severe modification......and even then it'd look like ***....).

I know...I've tried to figure out a way...but it just would NOT look like it came that way OEM. I mean...the USDM vent was molded in the OPPOSITE of how the JDM ones came primarily since USDM was LHD and the JDM was RHD. I could not even fathom a way to make it fit and make it look like it came that way ( without hacking the **** out of it and re-gluing...if you've had this problem...you probably know what I mean ). So..if someone on here says they were able to make it work...I really really really really want to see a pic and a write up of how they did that. I was however able to make the JDM power window switch covers work I even included that in the write up I linked up above for those interested in a useless yet good looking mod

i took the pics today, its very very easy to do, just a little bit of time and patience, but its well worth it then the overprice of acura luckily i got my console on ebay, i used to watch ebay everyday and had it down to where id just watch the newly listed items from everyday, i found a wrecking yard selling the console for buy it now $75 shipped and i bought it liek 3 minutes into the auction haahahaha but yeah im at home and i have no way of putting the pics on the computer here, so i will post tomorrow from work :D and a write up on how to do it,

all u need is a drill or a dremel, i used a dremel :D and some fine grit sand paper and a few drops of crazy glue

if someone can post pics of the jdm driver vent on each side it will be easier for me to make a write up on how to with diagrams on how to etc

ok heres the write up i started with a dremel bit it looks liek a sphere on top instead of a full dril bit its id say 1/8 or so inch in diameter, u drill a hole right next to each other along the yellow line, dot next to dot, the reason for so small of holes is u dont want to waste to much of the excess piece that you are drilling away, when u are done, then u simply sand down the actual vent to make it smooth, and the excess piece to make it smooth, on the back sode of the excess piece i sanded in a 45 degree angle and then sanded to make it a nice curve shape on the side, then simply krazy glued it to the left hand side of the vent so it should be like this

1)
2)
3)
4)

some people said this was Hacking at it, but its the easiest thing to do and much cheaper then acuras prices. the only reason u swap the excess to the left hand side is so u dont look into the vent with the door open hope you folks enjoy
