Console Trim Attachment
« on: April 03, 2016 - 12:34:29 PM »
Hey guys, quick question.  I'm doing a Auto to 4-Speed conversion.  Part of my swap is putting the console back in the car (PO removed).  I purchased a new 4-Speed insert for the top but I'm wondering what the best way is to attach it to the console.  There are holes for screws on the metal and attachment points on the console but I really dont want screws showing on the top of the console.  I was thinking about just using a two part epoxy.  What do you guys think?


Thanks!

I don't think you should glue it down, because as soon as you do, you'll want to take the console off for some reason.  I'd maybe recommend that double-sided sticky foam tape from 3-M or the tape you can get to apply emblems on the car.
