Re: WTB Center Console For 82 TA
I've got a Center Console,...... This one dark grey and is bare of accessories, no Console door or shifter plate. I do have an Auto and a Manul Shifter plate avalable - but no pics right now.
I also have another 82-84 Firebird center console that has the "Knee Pad" on the drivers side. I'm pretty sure that console is Black in color.
If your interested in more pics and a shipping quote than Send me a P/M that includes your ZIP code and I'll follow up with all the details !

Re: WTB Center Console For 82 TA
Consoles: About Floor Consoles.......
"Regular" Camaro's
The 82-92 floor console BASE is compatable throughout the years.
The Console Base TOP is specific from 82-89, then from 90-92. The late can be used on the early but the early can't be used on the late due to the monting of a Air Bag Module. All floor console "tops" have the pattern on the back for mounting of console clock.
Berlinetta center consoles are Specific from 84-86 due to the Digital Cockpit configuration.
FireBird center consoles from 82-84 are specific to those years and appear similar to the Camaro consoles due to the "Base" and "Top" design. ( they are no the same as a Camaro console ) The Trans Am Version has a large padded area on the drivers side for the drivers knee to rest against. I don't know if this is just experience or not - but Firebird consoles appear to be dark grey and Trans Am consoles appear to be Black.
85-92 Firebird consoles are updated and the radio pod is introduced. I don't believe there were any changes to the one peice floor console...... could be wrong.
Besides Light Bulbs - No Firebird parts from ANY year can be used on any Camaro console. ( Unless it's some custom work ! )
I think you might have wrote "Camaro" but meant "Firebird" !?

John , Is the 82-84 lower console different from the other year consoles that Camaros use? Or just the top part of the console different due to the shift plates being larger? I havent compared them.

Re: WTB Center Console For 82 TA
FYI not all 82 trans am consoles got the kneee thing
my 82 t/a does not have it, it is black console however
i need an upper 82 83 84 bird console does anyone have one unbroken ?
mine is broken at the radio hole
and yes the camaro ones were different i have an 82 console asembly from an 82 z28 i parted out and they are VERY different
these cars had very specific consoles, for each model and different year groups as well, 82-84 ,and 85-up!
same with dash pads, they were 4 different ones as well!
heres is an upper console shell from an 82 Z28 i parted:

so you can see how much different the camaro one is from the bird ones
the bases are not the same either, i tried to fit the upper from my 82 t/a into the 82 z28 lower and it wont fit into it, and vice versa as well
you have to find an 82 83 84 bird one
good luck!

Re: WTB Center Console For 82 TA
The responses for my 82 TA so far won't fit. It has no knee rest. I need a console from an actual 82 TA (Black).
Thanks,

Re: WTB Center Console For 82 TA
FYI
I put a 1984 T/A console in my 82 trans am and it fit fine. Put it in cause I wanted the knee pad type. A 1982 auto shifter plate will also fit a 1984 console as well however 1982 shifter plates are specific due to it being a 3 speed. The console top (what holds the P/W & mirror switches) from a 1982 will fit a 1984 console fine. Glove box lids also never changed.

Re: WTB Center Console For 82 TA
What's this about T/A's having a knee pad? A guy I work with has had two '83 T/A's and neither had/has a knee pad.
It appears that the knee pad was more uncommon than I thought. It's more of a knee "rest" than a knee "pad". Here's a picture of the one I've got so you can get an idea what we were talking about !
