Well all of you guy's have done a lot of thing's with your cars. So I want to put bucket seat's in my 69 with a console. Mine has the off set hump for the shifter and don't want it to come up through the console. So if any of you have done this or have an idea please let me know. One person told me to get the auto trans console and cut it out. Looking at the charger console it looks longer with glove box to the rear and shifter up front on the auto trans. Well need all the help I can get Hope you guy's are having fun out their may be next year ill be driving mine to.

DO NOT modify your console. The console shifters are offset (under the console) to allow for the shift handle to come up through the center of the console and then offset again to bring it back over where it comes through the tunnel.

Like this one.

Hello Range thank you. I do not have a console yet. Just wasn't sure that the off set hump could have the console put in. Oh hope you read this how wide is your bucket seat saw some in classic industries got their measurement's just want to see if they are close some one put 97 mustang bucket's in mine and that they seam to be small for the cabin. Thank you again Keep Running Beep.

The 4 speed console covers the hump.
