Scuderia Center Console on F430 and F1 Control Dashboard

Ferrari changed the layout of the construction after 2005 or 2006.

The newer F1 consoles have only a slim top and nothing else!

 

The problem ist the cables!

The newer consoles have fix cables at the buttons and only 1 system link.

You have 3 links at the button and fix cables going through the cable tree.

Perhaps you can adapt a new console to your cable tree.

 

Cut the carbon fibre? Sounds risky but if the face plate of the f1 unit is larger than it's base you should be able to hide the cut edges.

Good luck. Careful hands and a Dremel would solve the problem. Have fun.

There is no worse feeling (almost) than installing something that you can't wait to have in and then finding out it doesn't fit. This happened to me on a Jag XKR I used to have....I purchased a few CF pieces and the first one I tried to install did not fit correctly. You can imagine how frustrated I was after spending an hour getting it out of the car. I didn't have the patience to send it back and wait another week, so I took the dremel route and after about an additional hour of screwing around with it, I got it to fit perfectly. So good luck and take your time. Let us know what the outcome is.

 

Awesome! Congrats. Nice mod

Brought this thread back up. Didn't learn my lesson when you first posted now I'm faced with the same issue.

I solved the gear selector bit but now have trouble mounting the console back onto the base. I see only two mounting points, one with a 5mm screw and the other at the rear 6mm screw. But the front of the console plate does not have the two tabs as in my 430 coupe console so that means it might move around if someone decides to give it a nudge.

How did you solve the mounting of the console? Please share.

 

Looks so nice and clean.

 

I checked the Scud console and it does not look like someone has snapped it off.

On my 430 carbon console there are two fixed pins but they are somewhat fused to the console like it was manufactured that way rather than a glue whacked on after thought job.

Looks like it's modification time!

 

I have used Valence USA to make many of my one off CF parts. Great products at a great price. Chris is currently making for me the small and large top of dash defroster vents.
