Reproduction 85-92 Firebird Center Console

I read in the 2014 Hawk's catalog that the reproduction 85-92 Firebird Center consoles are "coming soon".

Does anyone have any more information?!

Hopefully this means they'll make a repo radio pod too. I think GM made the radio face plate supports out of self cracking plastic.

Haha, for sure! If the quality and material will be like the reproduction center console lids they sell, looks like it will be a pretty good repro too!

I reinforced mine with some metal bent to shape and some epoxy with a screen inlay. I swear I have the only pod that "hangs" from the dash on this site.

I'd like to see a hard plastic console instead of one that shrinks and peels.
The dash pad in a harder plastic would be just fine with me also!
