1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Completely new instrument panel and floor consoles are fitted to MY 2003 VY and V2 series vehicles. The
Instrument panel houses the instr ument clus ter within a hood, while the centre f asc ia, which integrates with the floor
console, houses components such as the new double DIN sized audio system, controls for manual or electronic
climate control, centre vent outlets and new cup-holders for Level 2 and 3 vehicles.
The soft-touch instrument panel pad is attached to a dash panel carrier. Several brackets and braces form the
back bone of the instrum ent panel pad and carrier ass embly and support other com ponents such as the ins trument
panel inflatable restraint (if fitted) and fuse panel.
All models now include an instrument panel lower trim plate assembly, fitted between the instrument and dash
panels on each side of the vehicle. Sound-deadening foam is applied to the plate which provides an effective
reduction in noise transmittance. Where fitted, the stepwell lamps are mounted to the plate assembly.
The large instrument panel compartment is illuminated and can be locked with a unique key. As with previous
models , a large lower tr im panel is fitted on the driver’s side which c an be opened to provide ac c es s to the f us e and
relay panel.
For right-hand drive vehicles two storage compartments are provided, one on the instrument panel at the front of
the console and the other at the rear of the console (except utility). As an option for right-hand drive and as standard
for left-hand drive vehicles, an ashtray and cigar lighter assembly replaces the storage compartments.
A large storage com par tm ent with trim m ed arm r est is inc orporated in the f loor cons ole. An acces sory power sock et
is provided within the storage compartment providing a 12-volt power supply when the ignition switch is in accessory
or run positions.
Depending on model level or options f itted, the console m ay also include power side window switches, a c up-holder
for Level 1 vehicles, mobile phone holder for Level 2 and 3 vehicles and auxiliary switches for functions such as
LPG, traction control for manual transmission vehicles and a lights-out function for vehicles with police option pack.
The floor consoles for right and left-hand drive are virtually common as the hand-brake rem ains on the right-hand
side of the transmission tunnel. An air duct is fitted to the underside of the console on all models except utility, which
provides ventilation to the rear seat passengers through the rear air outlet housing at the end of the console. For
utility vehicles, a storage bin is provided at the rear of the console in place of the rear air outlet housing.
The instrument panel for left-hand drive vehicles is a mirror of the right-hand drive instrument panel, with a few
exceptions. The body control m odule remains on the r ight-hand s ide of the vehic le, mounted vertic ally for right-hand
drive or horizontally for left-hand drive. A fuel filler door release switch is m ounted in the left-hand drive instrum ent
cluster trim.
NOTE: The information that is provided in this Section is to be used for both left and right-hand drive vehicles.
Although the information shown is primarily right-hand drive, it is to be mirrored for left-hand drive vehicles unless
otherwise specified.
Refer to Figure 1A3-1 for an illustration of the console components and Figure 1A3-2 for the instrument panel
components fitted to MY 2003 VY and V2 Series II vehicles. Note that these diagrams do not show switches or
electrical components.
