for all you OBS truck guys hopefully in a few weeks ill have a post of a 99-02 style 2 piece console in my 1998 truck. I have it all set in and it FITS GREAT i had to fabricate a piece of plastic for a gap on the passengerside where it molds to the dash but surprisingly its already shapped the same i am removing my factory cig lighter and accessory plugs and putting them where the cd player goes in the 99-02 console. as far as the rear portion it fits perfect on the hump and the mounts are molded perfectly to the floor i will jus have to design a way to bolt all 4 legs in as my truck came with a bench. ill try and post some pics when i get a sec of what its looks like as of now. the plan is to have my t56 shifter come up through my cup holder (thanks QUIK your an inspiration).
oOoh way to go wtfan!! I may have to do that too once i see how yours fits.
cant wait to seeQuote:

*applause* So the 6 speed comes up nice through the cup holder then?
if all goes well it should! thats the goal. ill get more pics up later on in the progess. as far as holing it in place i think im going to use the seatbelt studs and weld custom legs onto the base and bolt the front brackets up to the metal frame support for the dash
would it be possible to put a hurst or b&m shifter in the console for an automatic?
hahah that i dont know about ive always owned a manual i am clueless about the autos. sorry man
Im still stumoed on the lighter & power point. there was no way mine would just plug in. any one have any suggestions.
