Auto to for speed console

oldsman04 · 06-07-2008, 02:47 PM

Is it possible to cut an automatic console properly and set it up for a four speed shifter? Can you buy all the trim and rubber pieces to do it?

If you can, does anyone have the appropriate demensions wher to cut it? Thanks for any help in advance.

Yes, it can be done. The scoring lines are already on the underside if you flip the console over - all three console styles were built using the same basic unit, just cut differently. All saddle and boot parts can be purchased. The Parts Place comes to mind as one vendor who sells the parts.
