Okay so let me begin by saying that a 911sc console is NOT an easy fit to a 914. With that said... after a lot of, well um... "Idiot Engineering", I think it looks good.
(IMG:http://lib.nmsu.edu/~clandt/914/images/911console5.jpg) (IMG:http://lib.nmsu.edu/~clandt/914/images/911console1.jpg) (IMG:http://lib.nmsu.edu/~clandt/914/images/911console2.jpg) (IMG:http://lib.nmsu.edu/~clandt/914/images/911console3.jpg) (IMG:http://lib.nmsu.edu/~clandt/914/images/911console4.jpg) The 914 shifter sits a bit too far to the left. So the console must sit at a strange angle, Not too bad. Also there is no easy place to put a bolt to hold down the right side. And I am sure the plastic bolt hole on the front will break off in the position its in. Oh well, I like it...

That looks really great. I like to see someone think outside the 914 box.
The leather shift boot also looks good. What is the vertical item on the left side of the gauges? CCLINCONSOLEMYACHINGHEART |

CCLINCONSOLEMYACHINGHEART The verticle item is a small storage bin that can hold about three CDs. So I have my ELO and Def Leppard CDs. The gauge insert is from www.9xauto.com. Not the best, but tons better than I could have done. |

That really looks at home in your 911-esque interior.
