I believe you want an amco center console. No longer made but someone might still have one.

I bought this one and modified the hinge to open the same as a 914 lid.

Thanks. It looks 100% correct in your car since the whole interior is of the same standard.

Did it require any modification to fit, other than the hinge you mention?

Nope, it fit very well. It was easy to remove the hinge and use a dremel cut off wheel to shorten the hinge to work in the back. I then used the stock one to drill the two front holes through the cup holder to mount it. I never did the rear holes. Works great for standard water bottle and cans. Does not work with big gulp cups or large drinks.

Nicely done Steve. Thanks for sharing.

@Geezer914 I see you have a Rennshift with a center console. I am trying to do the same thing. What did you do for the pad that the shifter goes through. The stock one is the wrong size so the shift hole needs to be bigger as you know. Your solution looks good.

You have to enlarge the hole to fit the Ren shifter.
