I like it. Can you put one in an SC?

I wondered about this some time ago but someone pointed out that there's a problem with the shifter or something that prevents it from working I'd love to see someone implement it in an older car...like my '88.

It sounds like that is what it's made for.

I guess the heater levers go in that cubby hole?

The overall look of the console is good. But I don't like the cubby hole. I would hate to side the cover back just to turn on the heat or use the parking brake.

Very nice look but why do it? Although I like the transmission tunnel look of the 911's after 1989 I'd rather spend my money on other upgrades than looks. I was going to say something like why make it look like a Lexus but that didn't sound nice.

I have gone back and forth about doing a center console or not. I don't really like the style of this particular one. The forward most section doesn't meet cleanly with the front bulkhead of the car and looks unfinshed. I could live with the cubby hold if I had too... but then I look at the car and innevitably decide that it is perfect the way it is and don't change a thing. In fact, I deleted the small console that was there previously for a cleaner look.
