just got done addin my ek clower console in my hatch







let me kno what you think

 

looks good yo. ive got the DC center consol in my 91 sedan. i plan on gettin another EF nd doing this to it too. is urs 96-98 or 99-00?

 

thanks... well i dont really kno the year of it... my friend gave it to me for free cuz he didnt like it in his eg... yea.. still need to do some work to keep it down tight but it holds good

 

nvm. 96-98 have cup holder cover/lid thingy. 99-00 dont. looks good though. ive got the cup holder part. now i jz need the arm rest part

 

looks sick this is the first one i have seen

 

i think the DC console flows better but these cup holders are nice and they keep the drink away from the cdplayer

 

i would have gone for a DC or even a DA lower console but being that the ek console was free i went for it.

 

lol looks kinda like mine! i love my ek center console too... but only in my ek! just f-ing with ya, looks good, i hate my dc cup holders but o well...

 

i was expecting a hacked up lower console peice but wow that turned out good. i might ditch my dc2 center console for a ek. we'll see. does the shift boot get tight when you put it in 1st, 3rd, or 5th?

 

it looks nice and its a nice option after dc consoles (harder to find)but from experience i have owned many eks and thats the one thing i hated ...the cup holder in eks doesnt really hold your cup you slam gears and your **** is all over the place thats why i prefer the dcs cup holder they actually hold your ****.

 

well so far its got enough clearance and doesnt hit (even tho it is up close to the front) except when i force it in quick and hits alil... no major thing... i might get a new short shifter cuz the type r seems to short

 

ill trade ya my skunk2 dual bend for your type r. i love how the type r feels, at least in dc2's.

 

Looks good and clean.

 

looks good but i personally think the teg ones look better in efs.

 

yea i agree the teg lower console do go better with the flo of the civic console but its good to change it up

 

Are u goin to make a diy for it?

 

well i would have done a diy but i didnt take pics of it when i was workin on it... you basicly cut off the top of the ek lower console... if you want pics of how its cut i could prolly put them up and give tips and how i did it tomarrow

 

I really like where the cig lighter is, that's cool.

 

yea best part of addin it there was there was no wire cuttin... just needed to make the whole and move the wires up into place. also didnt get in the way of anything and gave me enough length of wire to work with

 

Looks cool. I like it, and +1 for using free stuff. I love free stuff!

 

I relocated the cig lighter/power into my armrest (on my 98 hatch) so I can charge my ipod or phone and leave it inside the armrest while driving.

 

just did this is my hatch as well

 

Will this bolt up better then the dc console? I am debating on which one to go with in my 88 sedan.

 

It looks really good, great install. The ek cup holders are horrible though! If you are a fat American like me and get 64oz sodas from Carls Jr it either wont fit, or go flying out at a high rpm shift or a hard corner.

I remember once I spilled an extra large drink from Taco Bell going down my driveway. I was super thirsty too

 

^ lol just put it in the glove box ^
