Very interesting. I do not see a source in North America. Any idea on the price?

It is released recently so the prices are still in the upper part of the scale. Seems to be around 800 Euro minus local tax(19% in Germany)

700 EUR on Amazon here... definitely upper scale

@Dlc, did you do the repair shown? If so, can you describe how you did that, please?

Jim -sure
I used a JB Weld-type material to close up the holes, then quite a bit of sanding, and then painting with structured paint. Took several tries to get it right, very happy with the result.

Thank you very much. We're you able to put the printing back on somehow?

The differences between the two units you showed above is that one (the longer one) is for cars that have AC. The AC evaporator fills the space where that little wood tray is, and the short console comes forward to meet up with it, filling that space entirely.

Mo makes the stickers
