Really? Not good news

What's the difference?

So I can't get the sliding top I'm stuck with double doors?

djrabbi

I think only the middle console is different, everything else is same....03-05 have the butterfly doors and 06-09 have sliding.

Craftysince86

And I can't pull my butterfly one and replace it with a sliding one?

djrabbi

Yeah you can. Someone has done it. I forgot who.

Craftysince86

Oh yea lol that's what I was asking if I can change them... Looking at an 08 console just wanted someone to verify it would fit in my 03

You have any idea of the instal is hard?

AzCamel

really? my 05 has the sliding door.

djrabbi

maybe late 05s had them or it might be 03-04 only than

AzCamel

Yea I know jerry, he sold that supra to peter, and it was a little uber 900whp. Jerry recently did the motor mounts on the benz, and that is my supra.

I Installed the EUROPEAN / Early Version of the center console in my Wifes 06 W211 as it had the roll type ...Replaced it with a Complete European unit..It was plug and play..
