New Consoles for TRs

I had one of Harrys consoles in my tr4A IRS and just loved it. I only had the rear section. Fantastic part from a good guy. Bob
 
I have one in the 250 AMCO add in from the dealer

and it is holding up well did have the replace the vinyl and piping to

match the new interior

perfect arm rest
 
I'd like to see one installed in a TR4. I've seen non-amco armrests in other cars and liked the option, but never had been able to source one.

The console was purchase at JC Whitney

The cupholder insert was cut from a cheap holder I purchased at Walmart. The console hinge is very cheap, it broke on short order, I replaced it with piece of piano hinge. I put pins in the front of the top cover to engage holes in the base, preventing side to side movement, should have done that right away the original hinge may have lasted a few days longer. :jester:
I also shortened the mounting legs a bit.

reason for edit....Oops, just thought I should point out that my seats are obviously not stock, don't it this will work with stock ones.
 
Mark-

Thanks for jogging my memory, that setup looks very good. Nice looking seats too, but I'm pretty sure my 52 year backside would have a hard time settling in them!

What brand of seats are those? Looks like some I would like to try.

The seats are Corbeau classics. I ordered them with inflatable lumbar support. I did thin down the bottom cushion so I could sit lower. I installed them years ago, I don't remember where I bought them. I am 5'11" and weighed 210 lb. They were a bit snug but not at all uncomfortable. I dropped 25 lbs., not quite as snug. I am 61 and the old back gives me some problems. These seats these have made driving the TR much more pleasant for me.
