    No pics, as you seen them time and again, but just to let you know I installed this puppy this morning. EXCELLENT interior/comfort mod. You all need one if you don't have it already.

    This is a must-have mod for pre-2008 cars! Elbow satisfaction is typically up 100% :)

    You're becoming quite the litle handy man.... pretty soon, you're going to have to buy your second tool! Then maybe even a tool box in a year or two!

    I'd actually like to see some pics of this Jason. I guessing this is the 22Elite cover?

    Well I have had mine for almost 3 years now... :)

    Yes this was before Dodge added this mod to the current cars... they copied us... :)

    Then I removed it and shipped it to Jina and had some work done to the front and rear one:

    Yeah its the 22elite one. I'm at work, so I can't get a pic... will try later!


    That looks good! I'd get something on the rear one, except for the fact that there's a giant baby seat covering it!

    What?!?! This mod is like 10 years old, where ya been brutha!! And how the heck could you have been on the OC and not have FORCED into getting one of this like everyone else, lmao!!!! Hahahhahahaa, anyway, agree it's a great mod, nice of you to finally get one (I got mine 1 1/2 years ago). If you want something for the door arm rests they have pads for that too, check them out (I just ordered some). 22Elite is awesome!!

    11/4/06 -- I think I was the last one to get it. Everyone else in the world had theirs already.

    (that was a setup right?:eek:oh:) MOMO INSTALLED HIS!

    It's about a 1 on a scale to 10. Same difficulty as changing your own brake pads but you use smaller muscles and your hands won't get dirty. You need to be capable of operating a philips head screw driver. If you want to be really really careful not to get any wrinkles at all in the corners then you can take a little extra time stretching it over the cover and glueing it. There are detailed instructions included. Get the padding with it.

    You mean you figured out by yourself how to get your console cover apart after you removed it? You did remove the "tissue box holder" so when you wrapped and glued the edges you could replace it and all that would be hidden, right?... right?

    I think we need pics. Top AND bottom of the console cover. (If you think you'll be embarrassed we'll up the difficulty to a 1.5)

    Don't jump the gun. We haven't seen any actual pics yet... he might have glued it right over the tissue holder, the padding could be all bunched up, he might have screwed the wrong end back on the hinge, who knows? We should wait for pics

    You're right. What was I thinking?

    Good job Jason!

    Now that I think of it, I didn't see any discussion thread on that mod. You must have just sucked it up and FTW gone and ordered it. Then went right on and installed it without any consultation, having Ralf over or anything. I can imagine the feeling of self satisfaction and accomplishment must have overwhelming and, at the same time, empowering. We're proud of you buddy. We don't care what it looks like.
