what year 4th gen center console for my T\A?

Ok.. first off i did a search. and the only thing i could figure out is that there is a difference between 93-97 and the 98+ center consoles.. is there only two types of 4th gen consoles?? and which one do i want\need?? meaning which looks best when installed, and which is easiest to install..

also,, is their much of a difference betwen 4th gen camaro and t\a consoles?

what year is this one?? (this is nosaint's center console..)

that'll give you the low down. For that exact console you're posting the picture of...it's a 93-96 Firebird Console, Standard.

Do NOT GET THE 93-96 camaro console. I learned that lesson the hard way.

I have a 98+ manual console and couldn't be happier w/ it I chose it for the extra cupholders (including the swing-out one). The install was EXTREMELY easy. Just two bolts for the new console and four for the old one. The only things that aren't completed yet are the center window-button holder and the plugs for the lighters. Just my two cents

the 97+ camaro console is physically the same as the firebird console from 97+

I think someone said that they are different colors...and I think the camaro one is black...not sure on that though. 97+ camaro is good for u though.

Some of the camaro ones from 97+ came in black. From what I've gathered they're an extremely good find if you come across one. I was trying to get black for mine, and the guy that helped me out at the shop said I'd have to wait about 3-4 weeks and maybe a black one'd pop up.
