I installed one in my 86 Iroc T Top Car.The holes are predrilled for the mounting screws.It was just a matter of cutting out the holes in the headliner,removing the old dome light assembly,then splicing in the connector for the console into the existing dome light wiring.Its really not that tough to do

Re: Console in 89?

thanks guys im still wondering if those predrilled holes are in my car since ive heard that the console was only avaliable until 1987 and ive got an 89. if they're not there i guess i could drill them myself. i dont want to take my headliner out yet to check if they're there cause its in really nice shape.
