    Not sure. What do you have? My interior is gold carpet and all white seats/panels. Not sure how these come.

    You should just take whatever you can get in decent condition. You're going to dye/paint it anyway :TU:

    Definitely thinking about it. My only problem is that I cut the floor and installed a B&M Ratchet shifter and not sure if it will work.

    wheelz 'B' is for Buick.

    ouch.


    This is just my opinion, but...PLEASE DONT buy a good console IF you are going to hack it up..PLEEEEEZE! Locate one that may have pitting, and slight imperfections but are decent enuf to look good in your interior AND NOT FEEL BAD about cutting up a shifter plate to make your rachet shifter work... GOOD EARLY MODEL Buick FLOOR CONSOLES are getting harder and harder to find... I have a few if you are interested. Good Luck! Wheelz, Tampa Bay

    From what I heard with the B&M shifter it has a longer shift to Park than the stock shifter so the bezel opening will have to be enlarged at the top so you would have to cut into bezel and possibly part of the console top to make it work. I'm with Wheelz on this one!!!

    Dug mine out, but it is a complete console. If you are gonna cut it go with the $125 one as it is not complete.
