[quote=MikeJP]Out of interest, I noted the comment about the gearbox being wider. I subsequently accommodated this extra width (side bulge) by expanding the original cut-out in the tunnel and covering with a suitably sized circular baking tray from the local shop. The flange allowed me to use several self tapping screws to hold it in place and the now larger aperture makes it easier to top up the oil.
The issue I have is that my car is left hand drive. The bulge is next to the accelerator pedal. I 've had to keep any expanding to a minimum. Aluminium tape has done the job for me.
