Ahh, You may be right. I don't have a console yet to judge size, or distance.

1wild brd, you should of bought the mustang one so it would  fit in the whole and it also is a lot shorter. I had that one first but broke the handle off then I ordered the mustang one as a replacment. But looks good I never made mine to fit maybe I will wait to see what you do!!! lol

^was gonna do that, but that one doesnt come with a cable, (which is why I went with a new shifter... mine (the cable) broke)

the mustang console Hammer uses the stock cable....  for the same price as this one was....

I figured ah what the hell, I am fairly decent at fabricting stuff, I will make it work...

ok I have the cable all hooked up, but I screwed up the pan gasket so I have to remove the tranny pan again tomorrow and redo that.  The good news is the tranny fuild was still nice and red and no burned smell... 

and I have the console cover just about done...  so far I am liking it....

meh... I could have done better, but after working on it for 12 hours today, I had enough lol.

Thanks...

I decided to call it done for now and painted it black...  looks much better now.

How does it "connect" to the console?

the two bolt holes in the center, and it still retains the factory tabs underneath to lock into the outer sides....  take a close look at the pics of it in primer....

as you can see I scratched the driver's side a bit, so I will have to redo it later, but I am happy with it for now....
