4th gen center consule

Im sort of a newb with this car I recently found out that a 4th gen center consule can be swapped into a 3rd gen GTA

is there a how to on this or anyone have pics of this, that would help also. Mainly im wondering if the power window switches are in the center or if they wire up the same?

no. you would have to cut your own holes. There are 2 main options for the center consoles. The LT1 style (93 to 97 I think) and LS1 style (98 to 02 I think) and you also have to decide if you want a manual or automatic shifter plate. But on all of them you have to fabricate your own hole. Its not hard if you have a dremel which you can get from walmart for about $20. The manual shift plate console will fit and drop in easier than the automatic. The automatic center console will require more work to get it to work properly...
