Have you undone the 2 screw bolts in the bottom of the actual console? 2 in the bottom and 2 under the ashtray.

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

Yeah I found some extra ones under the lid at the back above where an ashtray could go and once I removed that the back of it was able to be removed and found the 2 at the back of the centre console.

Has anyone removed the panel in front of the centre console that has the sub tank switch and power outlet in it? I guess the centre console has to come out to do it?
cheers

If your talking in front of the gear stick leaver you need to take the shroud off, 4 screws 2 on each side and one in the ashtray. Should be pretty obvious after that.

and remember to unplug the ash tray light before removing the console out. Mine finally busted after forgetting on numerous occasions.

Same deal with this Narva USB socket I fitted into my second glovebox.

Can anyone recommend a dual USB socket to replace it which WILL charge a tablet being used (& preferably with a phone plugged in too)?

@jaysee. He got a hold of a 3.5a one I believe. 3.5a would be perfect.

@Cuppa check out jaycars website there is a few they stock now rated at 2.1 amp per output so a total of 4.2 amp. I put 2 lots in mine for the kids ipads (ipad 4 and ipad air) and they work well...... providing the kids havent stuffed the cables up they use 😩. Thats another drama

The slight issue with 2.1A socket is they work fine if your not using a power hungry app like mapping software. I have a 2A socket in the rear and it wont charge my tablet if Im using Memory map. If using my 3A ciggie socket to USB Adpator the tablet will charge.

Thanks Mark & Mike, have just ordered one from my local Jaycar outlet. New model - will take 3 days to get it in. Comes with panel & surface mount & looks like it should fit the same as the existing one.
Older model with same 4.2a output is on special at the moment, but I wasn't sure if it had the same mount as my existing one - so paid a bit more for the new one which does. Probably a good buy for anyone who doesn't need the extra 'plastic surround' though.
Photo of my existing one, just 'cos I'm not sure which is the 'Panel' mount, & which is the 'Surface' mount, although I'm guessing mine is 'Panel'.
