Looking For A Center Console

flyboyron · February 25, 2010

I am looking for a console or something that I can put on the hump on the floor that has good storage, at least 2 cup holders, and won't tip over and doesn't look cheap. I would also like it to come close to the color of the ebony color that my seats are.

I have been to the GM site and don't like those, also checked out Pep Boys and other stores but can't seem to find a nice one.

Any ideas?

Just bought an ebony center console from ebay. It wasn't cheap but it's brand new so I'm happy with it. I paid $450 including shipping. If you're interested, I'll give you the guys's e-mail address. By the way, this is for NB Silverado.

Is it the LT2/SLE2 center console that extends all the way to the dash or the shorter, SLT/LTZ style? I've been looking for more than a year for the longer style.

What size Torx socket did you use to remove the seat/jumpseat?

LawmanSS · March 21, 2010

Yep, that's the one I've been searching for! Can you PM that guy's contact information?

How hard was it to remove the old seat and install this new console? I really like it!

I just swapped mine out today, found a someone who wanted a jumpseat rather than their LT2 console. Traded them straight up, it took a little over an hour to change both of ours.

Very easy install...

You will need a ratchet and deep wall External Torx Sockets E-16 & E-18

Torx Sockets

1. Remove Torx bolts under the seat closest to the center console (front used E-18, rear used E-16)

2. Loosen outer Torx bolts closet to the doors, no need to completely remove these (front used E-18, rear used E-16)

3. Disconnect powercord for cigarette outlet

- LT1 outlet is between jumpseat and passenger seat

- LT2 outlet is under center storage tray

4. Removal of console

Used 2 people

- 1 person up front lifting/pushing the seats out towards the door

- 1 person in the back seat, pulling the console out

I bought one of these last night. This is the longer version of the center console for the GMT900 "true truck" dash. I searched ebay daily for these for a year and a half without luck. The LTZ/SLT style consoles are aplenty, but these are rare. I figured I would share the information for anyone else who may be looking for one:

Console on ebay.

Note: The picture looks like the lighter color, but it is ebony.
