i fit the 2.6 rodeo box to my 2lt and have had no problems, i admit i got the mechanic to fit it and it still lands inside the console. the ratios are a little shorter but the box cost me $300 and $200 to fit itan know it drives like a dream.

id have to check the condition of my spare one but i think is black or a very dark blue as it came out of a blue car, we are talking the surround that the hand brake passes through that screws to the floor of the car and that the boot and petrol release poke through?
