95914, Center console..under armrest space? Posted by micyek, Jul-31-06 05:00 AM
Could anyone tell me if there is about 2" high X 10" long space in the center console underneath the armrest? Or is that area occupied by some factory widget soemthing or other?
Thanx!

i think thats where the "secret compartment" goes kent. i got an armrest from the junkyard and the 'secret compartment' door was ripped off :( do you need exact measurments or does that answer your question?

if you mean under the console entirly than yes your srs modual is under there. What are you looking to do?

Aaron, actually I meant under the tray/console enitirely.
joeck76...ok thanx...well that pretty much shoots my idea down entirely. LOL
I just thought that spot would be a good place for my carPC, with it's front facing the back seats so I could have easy access to the DVD rom and front USB ports and be super stealthy.

you could relocate the airbag module to behind where the radio goes. I actuall ythought about mounting my Car PC there too.

Any idea how much of a pain that would be? And is there any danger of setting off the air bags if I start f'n with that stuff? That would be bad. LOL

kent, are you building the pc yourself or did you get a premade one?

Kent, contact Selmerguy, he placed his dvd rom there just like your describing.

Thanx for the tip Terry...will do.
Aaron. I won a premade one on ebay for 400 bucks. It is all but new. It came with a wireless keyboard/mouse combo. I didn't even really want to spend the money...but I saw it on there with a starting bid of 400 and I put like a $410 bid on it and no one else bid on it. I was like oh shit. LOL
It has the Travia c134a case for reference...do a search for my user name in the audio section for a thread I started when I first got it if you want more information.

Relocating the srs modual should be no sweat compared to hooking up your pc however a thing to keep in mind, im not 100% sure but i think if you unplug that module your gonna set off your srs light and it will need to be reset but the dealer at a high fee or you will need to leave it unpluged to keep the light out and the srs system will not work. like i said im not totally sure but i do know if you unplug either of the airbags this happens so i would assume the same would happen with the brain so maybe try moving it without unplugging anything. just a tip and if im wrong than i stand corrected joe
