      Looking forward to seeing that 69 project's pictures. I get confused to how it should mate up to the 69 dash since it is not as seamless as the 67 and 68s

      67' Camaro with 5th gen center console

      Dudes, I love this idea. Those consoles look great! Where did you get the plastic inserts for around the gauges? (Carbon Fiber looking on JWcarguy, red on Scrugs) What did you do with the stock buttons/switches?

      Mine is a combination of the factory Gen 5 Camaro "non-gauge" shifter bezel w/ tray and a Auto Meter 68-9 Camaro 2 1/16" gauge insert panel for a stock 68-9 console
      a bunch of cutting, fitting and fiberglassing in
      I removed the stock Gen 5 cig plug and traction control switch and filled them in and installed my two switches for the drivers and passenger seat heaters that I had installed when I had my upholstery redone

      Then had a local company (Sin City Hydrograhics) do all my parts in a black "carbon fiber" hydro dip

      Hope that helps Jeff

      67' Camaro with 5th gen center console

      Okay, so I love this idea do much that I ran out and got a Gen5 console. Now I'm wondering how you guys made it look so good. Do you have more pics or a build thread?

      The basic dimensions fit okay but the front of the console is much wider than the tunnel. Lifting the front up to tuck into the dash leaves a big gap under the console, between the console and tunnel. Did you guys modify your tunnel to fit or something?

      It's looking like more than just fabbing brackets and basic trimming. There's not even really anything strong enough on the console to structurally attach brackets to. Looks like there's much more to this swap than it originally appears.

      Jwcarguy, can you send me the info on installing this console too please? I just got a 2010 console because of this thread. Definitely needs some work up front to fit correctly.

      Thanks in advance,

      Tony

      I am doing the same in my 69. I am using a horseshoe shifter. Here is a picture of a 69 Camaro with a 2012 interior. I just plan on the console and shifter. Thanks for the idea Jeff.Name:  69 camaro 2012 console with horseshoe shifter.JPG

      What are you guys spending on these 5th gen consoles? What is a good source? eBay is limited right now.
