Will 05 center console fit in a 02, the part around the shifter all the way to the air vents?

Thanks for the pics, it will definitely work!

replace the radio bezel too dont do mis match hehe

I'm kinda interested in this myself. Does anyone know where to source a JDM center console so I wouldn't have to get a new e-brake assembly? (since the USDM 2005+ cars have the e-brake on the drivers side vs. passenger side)

It seems to do this conversion on 02-04 cars we would need:

* 05+ RHD center console
* 05+ vents and trim
* 05+ manual AC control bezel from a USDM 2.5RS (or 2.5i)
* 05+ power window controls

Am I missing anything?

Thanks!
