Well... I bit the bullet and ordered the IL Motorsport console from Moss. Those bastards sent me my monthly email newsletter and it was right there in front of me, so I just bought the damn thing.
I'm actually pretty pumped about it. I've had my eye on it for a while, but I kept trying to "unjustify" it in my head. Well, that didn't work out.
I'll post later with updates. Here's a pic for those that don't know what I'm talking about...

That looks nice, is it NA only?
Yes and really 'spensive too!Quote:

If I had a miata with interior, I'd probably get it or the rs products console.
The Rev9 console is the shiznit. Me want.Quote:

Nice console. I like that, Tricky. I look forward to seeing it at the next trip to Angelos.
Eh... I guess I just kinda talked myself into it. ;)Quote:

now you just need to buy my gauge cluster face that way you have the whole set up.
That's too funny, my dad called me yesterday and told me he ordered one too.
I would if I had the cash. Maybe later if you still have it but I think I prefer the silver one. Of course if the deal is good enough....Quote:

How much for the IL? It's nice. I'll give you two fiddy if you decide you don't like it. ::Fish::

Brown Santa delivered the IL console on Friday! It looks to be very sturdy and very well-made (much more so than the stock piece). I should have it in by Wednesday Nite if anybody wants to take a look... :D
I look forward to seeing this.Quote:

Well, not much of a writeup for this one. The install is very straightforward, and all the hardware was included - the screws were actually poked into the proper holes in the console and backed up with cardboard to keep them from rattling out. The biggest PITA for me was pulling out the radio so I could get my iPod cable out of the old console (not sure why Earmark installed it the way they did). For this console, I routed the iPod cable back through the trunk/fuel door release hole - I had plenty of cable and didn't want to drill any holes in this pup. The whole install took me an hour. Everything fits perfectly and IMO it looks very slick!
Nice!::rock::
sweet! qonder if they have an NB model....
Nope. I looked into it as a part of my tan to black interior swap.Quote:

very nice....what Mazda shoulda put in!
Looks fantastic, i bet it feels nice having some comfort now. Those Nb consoles don't look too great for everyday driving. The short ones are nice but with out an arm rest it's eh.
Now that I've road tested it a bit, I can say that it's really nice having the extra armrest room, in addition to all the extra storage/cupholders/cubby holes/etc...
VFR750 was right - they should've come from the factory with this...
