70 Series Landcruiser Console Specialists
9. GEARSTICK SURROUND INSTALL
Put the transfer stick in neutral and remove the gear knobs.
You may want to tape the dash to prevent accidental
damage to the plastic. Plug in the new USB and cigarette
harness and slide the new console under the dash. You
might have to wriggle it slightly to get it over the factory
rubber boots.
10. FITTING THE FRIDGE AND BASE TO THE
VEHICLE
It may take two people to get the fridge in behind the
gearstick surround. The back of the gearstick console will
need to be raised. The front of the fridge will need to be
raised and the fridge pushed back into the foam of the rear
seats. This will allow enough room for the two consoles to
come down together.
This rear section of the console slides under the gearstick
section. Start with the 6mm bolt in the base first (Taped in
beneath the rear of the two cup holders). Two of the screws
that held in the old plastic centre console are used to hold
the fridge base secure (one either side). Once the side
screws are in, the front bolt can be tightened.
