Tony Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 I'm trying to find one of these for the 360 It's a center console for my MR2 MK3 ZZW30. The one in the image doesn't work in the link but the main one i see is provided by a company called DWM and listed on ebay. Problem i have is i cannot understand the postage cost which looks to cost as much as the product. The difference between this and the OEM console is the front hugs around the lower dash rather than this EOM one A while back i nearly bought one for about £250 but the delivery cost was £350.... Needless to say i opted out real fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMARTLY Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 You posted pictures not links the one in Malaysia you will need to contact the seller via ebay to get a shipping charge. What about the one Geoff posted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted December 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 The one in Malaysia is cheaper subject to postage and i can pay by paypal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMARTLY Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 Well send the seller a message and ask for cost ( and number of days ) to post to UK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liner33 Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 Dont forget to add 20% for vat plus duty if applicable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted December 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 I think i will ask..... I doubt if i'm going to find cheaper or a secondhand one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted December 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 The reply back was "USD182.00"........ How much is that?.... I assume dollars? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMARTLY Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 About £145 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted December 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 So it's $208 and $182 so around £380 ish total..... If it weren't for the £145 i would jump on this but now i have to think will i get my money back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffers Posted December 16, 2018 Report Share Posted December 16, 2018 What about the one I linked to? £250 quid all in, beats the £310 and you won't have to spray (unless you don't want it black) As Liner says though, either might be subject to a customs charge.

Tony Posted December 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 I think that will still have P&P and duty on top plus i can't pay by paypal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 You definitely won't get your money back and if you're selling the car in 6 months is it worth it? What's the difference between the two apart from the front? I'd rather spend the money on fuel and enjoy it while you still have it but that's just me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly says including delivery. Customs would be subject to any you would buy from anywhere outside the EU. 2 hours ago, Tony said: It's compulsive i think.....I've gone so far it's hard to stop. It's similar to when you are doing a house up to sell - you go overboard with things new owners would probably never even notice let alone appreciate. Is it really going to make such a big difference to even act as a selling point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 I think you've probably had the car off the road more or been busy modifying parts than you actually have using it. I'd finish the parts you've started and then just enjoy the car until you sell it. Like Geoff said whoever buys it won't be worrying about what the centre console looks like. How much do you think you'll get for the car cos looking at eBay prices I think it will be less than you're expecting? It could also take you very long time as the potential buyers will be very limited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted December 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 Part of the enjoyment is the build.... I'm not worried about competing in a sellers market because I'm not a desperate seller. When the sun shines and the roof goes down the price goes up, so I'll wait until i get my asking price albeit next year or the year after.

Rich Posted December 18, 2018 Report Share Posted December 18, 2018 If you enjoy doing it then that's fair enough IF you are willing to accept the money you will lose when it comes to selling. You keep questioning whether you'll make your money back or hoping that some of these mods will add value to the car so it's obviously an important factor for you. Couldn't you take the original one and get someone to fabricate the end on, surely that will cost less? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
