    Just finished my b7 console swap and I would recommend it to anybody. No more spilling my coffee all over my pants and now my drinks dont splash all over my avic d3. I wanted to thank all of those who contributed to the sweet write up on here. Too easy.

    How much is a b7 console?
    How to account for this massive success? Pure luck? Transcendental meditation? Machiavellian manipulation? Aerodynamics? High colonics? We haven't the slightest idea. -P.L. Newman

    Re: B7 console swap

    ^ it depends where you get it obviously but anywhere from 150-300 bucks. The installation its easy as long as you have keys to get your radio out. if you can uninstall the stock console you can install the new b7 one.
    SweetnLou!

    for sure, I felt like I was playing with a rubix cube. ha ha. Finally figured it out though. E-brake was the toughest part.

    Re: B7 console swap

    I guess I'll throw one up of mine. Nothing really special except I dyed the console to the same color as the top of the dash since Audi changed the colors slightly.

    nice mod man.

    Though, i have my b6 trim wrapped in suede, I do not want to have to go through that again.

    So, it's best that I stick with my B6 trim.
