Hi guys,
I'm wondering if anyone has fitted a centre console out of a 2005 onwards Suzuki Swift.
I just ordered one and will have it in a few days

I'll be interested to see how this fits up. Looking at my sister's Swift, my guess is that it will be too wide to fit between the seats, too high for the handbrake and the shifter will bash on the surround.

it doesn't fit with the original hand brake so i have purchased a hand brake out of the same car the console came from, i am up for a bit of modifications to get it all to work but i think it will look great when its done.

on a side note, does anyone know how I might be able to get the gear knob off. I have tried and failed.

The standard gear knob is threaded, Lefty loosey, righty tighty.

Someone might have stripped the thread in the past and glued it on.

without burning yourself or setting the car on fire, you could get a little gas torch and heat the stick up
