    Thanks it took a lot to get it to fit and look like i wanted it to. The console is out of a 1989 mercury sable, it was an automatic car. i got the shift boot out of some random ford (cant remember what) at the local pull-a-part. had to do a good bit of cutting to get it to fit right. Had it painted to match the dash. the attched pic is what it originally looked like when i pulled it out of the sable.

    If you expand the photo you can see the 4 speed pattern on the shifter knob.

    I wish I could get a console to work with my Hurst V-Gate shifter but it wouldn't fit anywhere near the center of the console like your's does.
