The problem is not the console, it is the dash. The stock thirdgen dash will hit the upper portion of the door panel. I bought a pair and tried to make them fit for six months. Good Luck!!!

Hell, for $70 I would try to dissassemble it and put the speaker grills in my car if they would fit.

Do a seach for 4th gen interior and you will see that many have tried and only one has succeeded. It is a difficult conversion... but it can be done. Good luck.

can it be done yes. But you kinda have to install the entire 4th gen dash... thats the Biatcher about it. Unless you are good with fiberglass then you can cut and trim the upper front corners and glass it over and paint.
