Center console question

69fastback · November 18th, 2011, 08:35 AM

Are the consoles for the autos and manuals different?

MustangOne · November 18th, 2011, 10:06 AM

yes, the shifter insert. $94 for the one w/deluxe w/auto

Is the hole farther back on the auto? What's the difference?

I'm going to attempt to use a B&M Pro Stick with the stock console. Ever tried it?

MustangOne · November 18th, 2011, 11:09 AM

I dont know, Never tried it.

So what is the difference with the auto and manual console?

I dont not know, Im looking at the parts for the console and there is a shifter plate for manual & then there is one for auto.

It depends on the year..67-68 is definetely different with the shifter hole offset to the drivers side for the manual shifter...I may be wrong but I think 69-70 is the same for auto or manual shifter as far as the shifter hole location..It appears there are some minor differences in the plastic around the hole due to whether it has a manual shifter boot or an automatic shifter bezel under the console..Take a look at this link..

Hey thanks man. I'm thinking that because my install will be somewhat custom with the Prostick, a new console won't really help me.

How's your car coming along? Bought any sticky tires for it yet?

I am not sure which way I am going for sticky tires yet...Trying to decide between full on slicks and a set of ET streets....No hurry since winter has set in here in the great white north.

I had that delima, and I'm so happy I went with slicks. I've never had so much fun.
