Post Guys with 4th gen consoles in 3rd gen's look inside

I'm really interested in changing over in my 86 TA. I'm just scoping out the project and looking for some finished pic's. If some of you guys with pic's of the switch could show me, I would appreciate it greatly. Thanks

I LOVE the look of the 4th gen interior in a 3rd. I've seen a few photo's and wouldn't mind seeing a link, myself.

Damn...that car won some awards!? Cripes!! One word...UGLY - inside and out, IMO.

It appears that if a Camaro owner wants to put a 4th Gen console in his/her car...they've gotta use a 3rd Gen Firebird section for the radio/HVAC controls.

Hmmm...

He says it is an '88 Z28. There was no '88 Z if I'm not mistaken. From '88 to mid '90 it was all IROCs.

PS: He needs to dump that crappy spoiler

Yeah...the hood, spoiler, gay seat covers, and wheels. I don't know how the hell he won an award with that thing. Damn.

Must've been very few cars competing against 'em.
