This question seems to come up from time to time in various forums. I've never read a post from anyone with a definite answer. That one on ebay is the only photo I've actually seen. I like the looks of the B&M Hammer. I'm considering a swap to a 2004R. I wonder if the floor mount version's base can be trimmed to fit in a console. Seems like it would depend on the height of the shifter and the size of the plate where it would need to cover the hole in the stock Firebird console.

Anyone want to take a chance and blow a couple of hundred bucks to experiment? Maybe all of us that are considering such a swap could kick in a few bucks each to fund the experiment. For that matter, has anyone tried to retro-fit a later model console into a first gen, like Kevin King did with the Year One 69 camaro?
