Hard to find Inner console

Post by bradicus »

Guys its come to my attention that the inner console is a rare thing to find, found like 4 wrecked ftos, none have them.
Although I found this on ebay, it seems overpriced. What is the actual value of the inner console?

Yea they're not common to be in good condition most of the time as they break easily. They are available through Amayama brand new for a lot cheaper than that but I don't have the part number on me at the moment.

I'm sure someone can put the part number here ;)

Actually, by the time you pay for postage, not that much cheaper than that. You might save $20 if you are lucky. better than Mitsubishi Australia's price though. Get it from them and you pay over $400 for the same part.

Buy a new one in preference to a 2nd hand one though as the 2nd hand ones are just as likely to break as not when installing (they are brittle) and will cost you the better part of $100 anyway.

    They either paint them or coat them. Mine has been hydrographic dipped with a carbon fibre pattern.
