PEEPS,

ingat nga pala kayo kapag tinatanggal niyo ung filter from the airbox. diba inaangat natin ung cover ng airbox, posible kasi na mahatak ung hose connecting the airbox to the turbo. so ingat lang baka di nyo mapansin nahugot pala ung hose ng turbo..

Guys yung center console ng alterra iba sa center console ng dmax. Yung cover ng compartment I think is higher making it also serve as an armrest. Do you think pwede bumili ng part na yun sa Isuzu then replace the existing cover sa dmax? Malamang identical naman ang mga hinges.

I inquired sa Isuzu Pasig kanina about the cover sa compartment ng center console. Damn. Aabutin ng 17k lahat kasi kasama yung buong assembly (hindi pwedeng takip lang). Pero I tried to sit inside the Alterra...nakakainggit kasi ang sarap ng may patungan ng elbow, lalu na't matic and Dmax.

Deym, gusto ko nung center console na yun.

Djerms, eto ba inaasam-asam mo?

Hehehe. Binili ko yan sa Thailand nung nagbakasyon kami dun last year. Since last year pa standard sa mga ThaiDM D-Max yang center armrest. Sinadya ko talaga yung headquarters ng Tri Petch sa Bangkok. Malapit lang sila sa international airport, mga 10-minute drive lang siguro. Nakalimutan ko na yung exact price pero mga 2000+ baht, nawala na yung resibo. Sayang, natapon ko na rin yung kahon, nandun yung part number. May blooper lang ako kasi di ko nacheck kung pareho yung clip lock mechanism niya dun sa plain lid cover ng D-Max ko e ayun, magkaiba kaya tinanggal ko na lang yung clip lock nung nabili kong armrest so di siya naglalock ngayon, nakapatong lang pero wala namang kaso yun. Medyo pahirapan pa nga yung pagbili ko kasi walang marunong mag-English sa mga parts personnel. Tinuturo ko lang dun sa drawing sa parts catalog nila yung gusto ko. Nung nagbayad na ko, tinanong nung cashier kung anong address ilalagay, sabi ko Philippines. Aba, tuwang-tuwa sila, kinamayan pa ko. Para bang they feel honored na dayuhan pa yung customer nila.

Djerms, you can try asking paj4x4, he's a Pinoy tsikoteer based in Thailand and he ships automotive stuff for sale here in the Phils. Maybe he can help you.

Or kung magagawi ka sa Isuzu Alabang, try mo rin magpaorder dun. I find the parts personnel in Isuzu Alabang more accomodating kaysa sa Pasig. Saka mas gusto ko yung set-up ng parts department dun kasi open siya, pwede ka pa ngang makitingin dun sa computer habang hinahanap nung taga-parts yung part number at price nung item na gusto mo. Di tulad sa Pasig na sa counter lang kayo mag-uusap. Pero pag PMS, Pasig pa rin ako.

The foam part of the armrest can be lifted separately from the main body, exposing a small compartment for thin stuff like receipts, cards, etc.


Here it is with the whole armrest lid raised to access the main console compartment.

Here's the old plain lid cover.


The hinge bracket is the same for the lid cover and the armrest. All you need is a Philips #2 screwdriver and then transplant the hinge bracket from the lid cover to the armrest. Even a child can do it!

[isketi]

Just to show you that the holes for the screws are identical.


This is the clip lock which is not compatible with the catch on the console, hence I removed it.

[srbogoy]

comfortable nga, wala pa kaya dito sa atin n'yan ...?

After I removed the clip lock.


Here you would notice that the clip lock of the armrest is way much bigger than that of the lid cover so it won't fit here:

The catch on the console.

Isketi,
You made my day. Active pa kaya si Paj4x4 dito sa tsikot? Parang di ko na sya napapansin. May ibang contact ka pa niya? I'll try to pm him tho.\

[Djerms]

Oh and where did you get your seatcovers?

[cardo]

Ala ako ibang contact # ni paj4x4 e. Alam ko mas active siya sa www.4x4ph.com, try mo rin siya i-PM dun.

Yup, dapat standard sa mga matic cars ang center armrest. Sarap mag-one hander, hehe. And with a matic, not only do you get to relax your elbow and shoulder but you also get to hold hands with your special someone.:inlove: Matic forever!

Tama si jarhead, when I converted the price to pesos, it was still P2k+, almost P3k. Ok na yun, kaysa naman bilhin mo yung buong console box na P17k.

Oh and where did you get your seatcovers?

yeah I like the seat covers too

what material is that? suede?

Bought my seatcovers from Boy Chincuanco along Araneta Ave near Big Bert's but on the opposite side. Velvet yung material niya, dark gray yung color. Yung model code nung tela J-41. I also had the armrest wrapped with that material. Iba kasi yung design nung upholstery nung armrest dun sa mga seats.
