94 Integra Console Swap UPDATED 2.23.11
bretrutan
Band Wagon
SEE UPDATE BELOW
Please don't flame, because it didn't turn out quite as expected but I made it work.
Here's the stock console. First remove this. Only four screws held mine in.
Then you need to remove the radio bezel or whatever you want to call it. Only four screws hold this in, one hidden on in the glove box.
Should come out looking like this
You need to remove the bottom portion from the top via two screws on the inner front part of the bezel. You are left with this piece.
If you want to retain your cigarette outlet remove this and ground and splice it to the integra console. Pretty easy.
Now you're ready to install the integra armrest and console. WARNING. They do not line up property so you will have to fab something up to bridge the gap. See pictures.
So once I got it installed there was about an inch and a half gap in between the two.
***** FOR A TEMPORARY fix I used some spare material I had a made a junction between the two. I plan on matching my Headliner/armrest/and fabbed piece around the radio a like. It should look neat.
Temporary finished product.
I'm happy because now I have an armrest/ console storage, and CUP HOLDERS!!!!!!!!
Stay tuned, I plan on fabbing something else inbetween the console and radio.
UPDATE
I went to the junk yard and pulled out a radio bezel out of an EF, and a junk holder (IDK what its called) out of a 1997 integra. I took measurements and everything fitted very well. I am pleased and the redneck look is gone
I also spray painted the console to match the interior.

thats the same console i have to install into mine..
just need to come up with a mend for that gap..
Yeah, I'm going to come up with a cleaner look, just a twenty minute fix to hold it over until I can come up with something.
can i get a pic of those 2 screw mounting points..??
Yes it comes in fabric. Only the GSRs I believe came in leather.
thumbs up for getting creative, tho!
If not, doesn't seem like a bad place to mount gauges in a boosted wagon.
stupid auto seat belts that i love!
