An option if you can't find a console would be abs motorsport, they produce a grp copy of the centre console, I am tempted by one myself as I currently have a genuine console and want to modify it for a few bits. However hacking up a genuine one may be a bit foolish! But they sell them for about £80 I believe

That's the one they do, and I don't know what cigarette lighter and clock you're referring to, the one ABS sells is just the plain grp part and my one doesn't have them. 

My one has been slightly modified by previous owners so isn't perfect and has cracked slightly at the top, I would be interested in selling but I would want about £65 back for it as that's what it cost me.

Not current ones, give me a minute and I will go take some. 

Here we go, just taken these, excuse the messy car, its winter after all ;) 
This is exactly how I got it, I just fitted the little rubber grommet and water temp gauge to fill the holes 
The speaker grill was what came with it and has been slightly hacked along the side to fit (I don't know the origin of this grill) and it has a wooden backing behind to give it some structure.
