i got the gear knob off ebay second hand, it matched the eb woodgrain better but it still looks ok.

That is EL Mont Ghia door cards. I have just done the LTD Trims on mine, they didnt have the Ghia badge, so i unpicket the top front ones and used my old tops. Also I used the top leather section, as the LTD ones were this funky checked carpet.

Hmmm, sounds like something I want to do mate.
I want to use the leather bit that your arm touches on my DL LTD door trims with a velour door trim from either a Fairmont or Fairlane.

Hey Troyman
Looking good. I know how much of a pain it is to change all that lower trim over. Which is why I am yet to do mine LOL

nah
i dont really like polished alloy finish on the console (i think it would be to shiny and would get you in the eyes while driving) i use to have a chrome gear knob and the sun light reflecting off it use to give me the s**t.
so my shift surround and the rest of the plasic has been painted metallic grey..

I was asked to post a few pics of the foot operated park brake, so here they are, as this thread discusses this on the previous page:
