SOLD!
A few big things have changed in my life, and priorities have changed. I need to sell the console unfortunately. I'll skip the story and just get to the description:
Up for sale is my JDM Navigation console. Complete with all framing and all console pieces. All brackets and framing has been modified and changed to USDM brackets and framing so this will be a full BOLT ON. I did the work, you don't have to. And more good news,
this will work for both sedan and coupes. Fitment is exactly the same. Also the navigation screen trim comes with it and the hazard button has been retrofitted for direct plug in with your USDM hazard harness. No wiring or modification necessary for the install.
The JDM navi climate control comes with this and functions perfectly with the USDM wiring. It is also a direct plug and play connection. No wiring necessary.
The front cigarette lighter is also a direct plug in and requires no wiring modification. The rear cig lighter will need a 12v and a ground sent to it which can be spliced directly from the front cigarette lighter wiring (That is how i did it when it was installed. Functioned perfectly).
The heated seat switches are obviously a direct plug in. Just unhook yours, and plug these in, they work the same.
Some extras that go along with this console is the Pioneer DVH-P5000MP DVD headunit and the Farenheit T-6509MSV monitor which have both been installed and fitted to this console (again, so you don't have to do any fabrication or difficult work; i did it already). They both come with their necessary wiring and remotes. The monitor is the brightest monitor you can get your hands on for in-car use. Rated at 450nits, it is more than excellent for daylight viewability, even in sunlight. At night, screen can be dimmed with one button on the remote as to not blind you. It can also be turned off whenever needed with the push of a button. The monitor is sharp and clear while viewing any media and while the headunit displays track and mp3 information on the screen in real time. Also included is a steering wheel remote for the headunit.
Now onto the some other information:
The actual vents are missing from the console, but can be aquired without problem from Honda CLIO in Japan. They are still available and have not been discontinued.
Also there are a few TINY chips on the wood on the edges where the original importer had improperly removed it from its donor car. When you see the pictures, and if you are one of the people that have seen this in person installed in my car, it is not noticable and does not take away from the quality and visual impact of this console. Its rare enough to come across a complete navi console with hardware, let alone a console that has zero wear or damage .
Also, the armrest will need to be re-covered. It should not cost more than $20-30 at a leather upholsterer. When i received it, it was fabric covered and the padding and fabric had been sunbaked and was dissolving in my hands. Easy fix.
Enough of the description, I'll leave you with the photos i just took of the console. I tried to get several angles to provide you with a full idea of what is included along with the console and framing. I will then include photos of when it was installed in my car.

Asking
1300 shipped. If not sold soon, will go to eBay.
Jdmisme recently sold a console on ebay with all JDM brackets (not a bolt on), and wiring necessary to get it functioning correctly with no radio and no screen for 900 shipped. I determined my price based on that, the labor I personally have put into this, the fact that mine is a complete
bolt on, the year of gathering parts from importers here and acquaintances in Japan, and the DVD headunit and monitor. I believe i set a fair price.
Thanks for the support and I hope I was a positive inspiration for installing this console
Its safe to say this entire console has been in good hands since the day i got each and ever piece of it. I hope several of you can vouch for me when i say this.
Thanks again guys.
