They came in!  I took a pic of the Passenger side. looks sweet to me!  Both look good, I also ordered the Console chrome while I was at it.

Tom,

  I just did the console chrome/shifter bezel thing myself. Interesting project.  :screwy: Improvise is the word of the day.  :lol:

I don't have pics, but once you get the whole shifter assembly out, you will notice that the chrome bezel is spot welded on. I carefully pried the old one off with a screw driver. I then used some thick epoxy on the 4 corners to "install" the new bezel. Maybe you'll come up with a better way, but this worked for me.
