Default Best replacement brake console

My emergency brake console has some cracks in the top, from somebodys elbow in it, Who has the best replacement for it? Or are all vendors the same with this part. Its the first replacement part I need on the 70', otherwise it is all original. Are there any problems with changing out the part. Thanks. zzzz

Got mine from "Wilcox" about a year ago. Very nice and fits perfectly. They were also the cheapest . . . which isn't always the best route.

I got one for the same reason (and to eliminate the buckle pockets). It sort of fits. The texture is...textured, but not a match for the factory grain. Despite that, the overall shape is only fairly close. I can't really recommend the one I got from Mid America.
