Console Differences
Short answer: The 1967 console top had a satin-black “camera-case grain” finish. For 1968–69, Pontiac added a burled-walnut metal applique (with matching door and rear covers) and eliminated the rear ashtray and light.
The main console structure and chrome rails were the same all three Firebird years (and the 1967 Camaro). Unbolt a 1968–69 walnut applique and you’re looking at a 1967 console with holes drilled for the applique studs. The appliques differed between standard- and automatic-equipped cars.
