95 Monte Carlo Console?

hey guys,
i got a console out of a 95 Monte for free and i think with a little modification it will fit. the radio pod needs to come out. here is a picuture of one i found online, i have the real one in my trunk. the only problem is i think its a little to thin so we'll see.

today i was driving my mom's 96 Lumina and thought the same about her center console. its the same as one in a monte carlo and i dont think it would look right. its too skinny like you said.

Anything will fit...given enough work.

Seen a RX8 full length one go in a 3rd gen before. Nice that it reached the back seats too.

I've thought about extending mine all the way back.

yeah thats what i'm thinking, only problem is it doesnt have a spot for the ebrake. i remember the rx console that was a cool build. I think i'll make a beast child out of both of them.

Re: 95 Monte Carlo Console?

Not going to work I measured several consoles in the yard. If you were going to attempt it try a 94-03 Grand prix console (97-03 being newer looking) It wont be much different though aside from the front , because the monte carlo is really just a grand prix anyway.

I have been thinking about a full-length center console, but everything I have found so far, just looks like an aircraft carrier parked between the seats!!! lol
