Lancer VRX Center Console / shifter - compatible with CH?

Re: Lancer VRX Center Console w. Lid - compatible with CH?

I don't see why it wouldn't. It has the same bolt holes as the non vrx console. I actually think this would come in handy. I might try find one myself haha :)
 
Re: Lancer VRX Center Console w. Lid - compatible with CH?

From what I know, the base model doesn't have the groove/indent for the latch/bracket and doesn't have the little lock thing for it if you were to put the lid down. Pretty sure they are the exact same console apart from that, so either replace the whole thing or do a little DIY with a lid that won't lock shut.

tl;dr, yes should fit if you are replacing the whole console, not just adding a lid

^doesn't own a cg/ch


Mit, as long as you are swapping the whole console and not just the lid the console will 100% bolt up. And being 07 you'll already have black interior unlike pre face lift models.
 
Re: Lancer VRX Center Console w. Lid - compatible with CH?

Yeah they swap straight over mate
 
Re: Lancer VRX Center Console w. Lid - compatible with CH?

Thanks guys.

The only reason I was concerned is due to the location of the screws. If you look at the 2nd pic., the screws are in the middle and from memory my one is more towards the rear (the lid side).

Can anyone confirm the screw locations?

It was off an 04 VRX.

I got the image off google though I would say a used one would go for < $100.

I am still searching for one :lol:

If anyone knows any places or wrecking VRX's (hard to find) where I could get some, please let me know...

:)
 
Re: Lancer VRX Center Console w. Lid - compatible with CH?

You might find that the mounting points are the same and that the console is actually longer...
If not it's a simple fix of attaching it.
 
Re: Lancer VRX Center Console w. Lid - compatible with CH?

Console is longer due to rear ashtray. It swaps right over. Worst comes to worst, get an evo one. Our interiors are identical to evo 7/8/9.
 
Re: Lancer VRX Center Console w. Lid - compatible with CH?

I got the entire centre console out of a wrecked VRX (including the shifter section - it looks nicer than the standard ES console)....cost me $35 all up and is a straight swap over....all screw holes are in the same place...
 
Re: Lancer VRX Center Console w. Lid - compatible with CH?

Can anyone provide a part number for the VRX center console?

thanks.
 
Re: Lancer VRX Center Console w. Lid - compatible with CH?

instead of finding a part number there are a couple of other cars that will fit yours- look at Evo 7,8 and 9, these do come up from time to time when people want to reduce the weight of there evos for racing, check out ebay, yes the upper spec'd lancers do fit as well, the consoles with lids are larger/longer in internal space than the non lidded ones which is why the screw spaces look off.
 
Re: Lancer VRX Center Console w. Lid - compatible with CH?

Finally!! :D

I finally managed to get the center console with the lid off an evo. It actually does fit straight over like what some of you guys said.

It's got the suede lid not plastic like the VRX. It looks nicer plus now I can rest my left arm while driving. Winning! :p

This wouldn't been possible without the consistent feedback and help I've been receiving from you guys. Thanks alot guys.

I also hope I inspired a few other Lancer CH owners.

N.b. Will post up pictures of the new fitout soon. :)
 
Re: Lancer VRX Center Console w. Lid - compatible with CH?

It's also worth mentioning that I removed the cup holder component from the Evo one and replaced it with my original Lancer CH one.

The Evo one has a 'Auto/Man' switch for the intercooler instead of the coin component.

Re: Lancer VRX Center Console w. Lid - compatible with CH?

its not all one piece??? the one I got out of the VRX is all one piece (centre console with suede lid and cup holders) and then a seperate piece (ash tray, decoration around gear shifter)
 
Re: Lancer VRX Center Console w. Lid - compatible with CH?

I only got the armrest and cup holder part, not the gear shifter area.

The cup holders and armrest were one piece but I removed it and replaced it with my one which had coin area.

Just a reminder, this was from an Evo and not a VRX.

Now my next mission its to go hunting for the VRX gear surround.

I cannot seem to find a single wrecked VRX in the Sydney area. :(

Please PM me if anyone knows of wrecked lancer VRXs. Thanks
 
Re: Lancer VRX Center Console w. Lid - compatible with CH?

I searched for mine on Gumtree and found it at the Gold Coast...
