Console Deleters—What did you do for the holes in the carpet?
I pulled my console and now have several holes in the carpet. Most of them are in a vinyl panel on the tunnel carpet. Has anyone just had a piece of pebbly vinyl sewed on top of the old one?

I deleted the console in my '80SC. What I did was rob my '71 of that tunnel carpet piece (for the time being) and installed it in place of the SC tunnel carpet piece.
I don't know what color your interior is but if it's black you could go to the local auto store and buy a roll of black perlon carpet. Trace the shape of the OEM SC carpet on the perlon carpet, cut it out, and install. This is basically what I have in the SC and it looks pretty nice. |

Probably. Go down to the auto store and see what they have for black carpet. It is slightly different than the rest of the interior OE carpet - but it looks much better than the OE carpet with holes, etc. left from removing the console.
