console size
Can anyone here PLEEEZE tell me if a 95 center console will fit in a 93? They are both sedans... Thanks so much
Re: console size
It should bolt on fine but I can't confirm it will fit against the bottom of the 93 dash. Looks like it probably could. If I'm feeling sprightly I might try and swap consoles on my 95 and 93 to try it out for you.

Re: console size
That would be awesome, if you have time. The previous owner smoked and burned everything inside, including the headliner! I cant seem to find a center console for my 93, but found a 95 for a reasonable price..
Re: console size
Yeah, the 95-99 are a dime a dozen compared to the 90-94. I've been thinking myself that I might need to do a swap a newer style console to finish the cosmetic part of my 5 speed swap.

Re: console size
Looks like it will rain all day, but should be clear tomorrow though. I will try it then unless someone here who already done it can chime in vefore then.

Re: console size
I haven't tried it, but isn't the e-brake in a different spot?

Re: console size
I don't believe so. I don't know down to the inch, but driving both it feels like its in the same spot. And the mounting screws appear to be in the same place too.

Re: console size
Its a no-go, due to every USDM owner's arch-nemesis, the automatic seatbelt. The console bin on the 95 is MUCH deeper than the first Gen, and won't clear the belt reels that are tucked down there by a long shot.

Re: console size
What if a person didn't have an autotragic seatbelt setup?

Re: console size
Sounds like it would probably work out with manual belts.

Re: console size
The center console cubby does unscrew from the center console. Could you swap the shallow cubby with the deeper cubby?

Re: console size
Good question. I'll check that out. I didn't know the cubby bins came off.
Don't have much desire to pull my seat belts out though.

Re: console size
One of the hinges took a dump on mine and I have a hole drilled for a remote amp gain knob in the cubby. So I took the hinges from another cubby, riveted them onto mine, and then reinstalled my cubby.

Re: console size
Thanks for all the suggestions. I think I will have to search to the ends of the earth of a 93 console, but thats what I get for buying such a popular sought after auto. Besides, she is worth the wait. Don't know why the previous owner had to burn the crap out of the interior with cigarettes
