Well where do i start!

Once you take off the main console surround is where the shit starts........

The plastic frame which holds the gaiter has snapped just below where the switchs sit ( this was causing the switch plate not to sit right ) A previous owner realized that he couldnt source a new gaiter from Fords, so modded a fiesta one to fit. This had started to come away from the surround which also made me start taking her apart!

Anyway the gaiter has been bodged quite badly, i'll try & take pictures tonight as this will explain things alot better!

So from what i understand i'll have to find a complete centre console....Which i also believe are going for silly money!

Other stupid things include the 4 bolts that hold the surround to the transmission tunnel, 2 are missing....... They seem to be a special flaring nut?!?!

Again i'll try to take loads of snaps tonight which will hopefully highlight these problems that i want to sort!
