  • Escort console swap?

    I have searched all over this website (yes I found the button ) and have yet to see a "how to" on the escort console swap. I have found several at my local JY and was planning on pulling one that is in perfect condition tomorrow but I was hoping to get some advice before I do. I heard in another forum to make sure I pull the middle bracket but that is about it. Any help on disassembling would be amazing!!!! I'm a noob

    Its not a bolt in, you have to do some fabbing.

        I havent seen a seamless install yet. You can do a lot of things but the end results should be an improvement if you go to all the trouble, IMO.

            Maybe someone that has it already installed could slightly take it apart and make a how to :? And thanks Fresh!

                      I messaged him as soon as I got home from the JY about helping me out.

                        Not sure what you did, but your quote above should not be attributed to me.

                            Not a problem!
                            Just have to figure out how you managed to do that.
                            The only way I know how to do that would be manually, without the "quote" button.
                            Or in manually in combination with the "quote" button.

                              Yea I am still new to the forums (only active a week) and I didn't want to post all of his pics again and take up server space for no reason so I hit quote on yours then copied and pasted. I didn't realize it would give YOU a message. I got it figured out now.
