i have some on my site, when i had them installed, pulled them off becuaes the lactches were bugging me, , after i get the motor in and car painted i will start back on my interior, bascially its done, just a few things i want to change that are driving me nuts, one being my gauge cluster and i need a stick console top, i tried to make a automatic work, im not happy with the results, but i might go with a b and m hammer shifter anyhow, so that consol top might work after all, and im pulling the yellow roll bar padding off, just going with black, it stands out to much 
, its been raining here all week, which is slowing my painting process down, 
if at all possible i want to make trans am nations this year ,

Let me get this right, that is your car right FIREBIRD7777 and you said thats a auto console u got in it. It looks like a stick one to me though. Well if it is a auto one, it did work but was hard mods to do it. What do u mean by that. Also it looks great very profetional. What color u plan on going with?

thanks for the good remarks, i remember i got flamed bad when i did this swap from a few hardcore 3rd gen's,
as far as the console what i meant was i used a 3rd gen stick console bag, and attacted it to a 4th gen auto, after i cut it to fit, the outcome was a terrible looking console, thats why its driving me nuts, anyhow here are a few new pics, \
this is how the car sits now, as you can see i have alot of work to do yet

thanks , it was alot of hard work, and i still have alot more work to do , , at the time i did the swap, i had only seen one person that had done the swap which is the guy overseas that installed 4thgen interior in a convertble camaro, once i saw that , and i got a good deal on the interior out of a firehawk, i had to try it, its not show material, but im happy with it . i did the swap but stopped at the heater, and gauge parts, since then a year has passed or so, and guys on this board have taking the swap to another lvl, they have actually gotten the 4th gen gauges up and running, and the heater box, crammed in , personal im going with a electric heater for variours reasons, mainly my car will be a summer car, , but for the 4th gen gagues, i still have to start tracing the wires, and tackle that mess, anyhow here is my site, its a year old, but there are some pictures on there that might help anyone doing the swap,
