 Got this a couple days ago Put it in today Looks so much better! A bit fiddly, but if you get a spare 20 mins or so, it is worth it  Pretty sure you can get the inner chrome bit pretty cheap from Ford, but i needed the outer too, cuz mine was all sticky... Dont ask ;)

Its one of the things I want to do to mine, but I think I'd need the whole surround, the black/grey bit on mine has a couple of small blemishes.

I need to pull this piece up on mine so I can change the light globe on the gear selector indicator. How did you pull the old one out?

Here's one I prepared earlier! LOL! The globe you need to replace is in the brown holder, seen best in picture / step 6. The holder just twists in and out. Chrome Gear surround http://www.fordforums.com.au/showpos...5&postcount=27 All the best with it. GK

Well regardless of whether you paid too much for it like all the experts say, it looks great. Nice pickup.

Stock housing is not two seperate bits, but if you are getting a woodgrain piece as well, you have to get inner and outer, if getting just the chrome bit, its actually just the inner bit, and you have to buy the outer surround as well. You cant get a chrome single piece inner and outer as far as I know.

Also if you have a series 1 it is alot easier to buy the 2 peices. I ordered one of these a few months back, was only going to use the crome piece but (can't remember why) it didn't work out, had to use the outer part aswell

Just as a heads up, if you want the woodgrain piece, the outer surround bit, its $10 cheaper off Ebay.

Thanks GK. I thought there had to be an easier way to change a light bulb than pulling out the whole centre console...wishful thinking....
