Has anyone seen a diagram as to what the center tunnel is supposed to look like? The clutch tube is pulled through the firewall and laying loose in the tunnel and I'm trying to figure out what to do. I have no clue what it is supposed to look like, so am having a little trouble developing a strategy.

You will need to strip your carpet off the center tunnel, you might as well take the seats out to give yourself room to work. There is an access panel at the rear of the top of the tunnel that will let you get at the clutch tube where it connects to the firewall. It will need to be welded back in place. The front weld is probably broken also. You'll need to cut an access door just in front of the shifter to weld that back in place. Here is a pic of the access hole I cut with a Dremel on three sides, folded it up and then screwed it back in place when I was done.
