Center Console
I'm sure some of you guys/gals have already installed the Mid America center console cushion. Is the install pretty straight forward, much of a PIA? Any pic's and or recommendations regarding installation would be appreciated. Thanks

...sorry guys, no pics of the install, but as others have stated--a piece of cake. Good directions are provided, looks good, no complaints.

I installed mine last night. The instructions are straight forward and it should take you less than an hour from start to finish. The hardest part is stretching and taping down the edges of the cover to the bottom of the console top.

Easy install if you take your time. I got the cross-seams a little slanted, will remove and reinstall it some day so they look better.
For extra padding, I put a couple of layers of THIN tool-drawer-liner rubber under the cover, very comfortable but might have been fine without.

I had the Mid America console cover. Easy enough to install but always looked to me like it was an added on piece. Replaced it with one from Down South Vettes which is much better leather / stitching and is professionally installed on the cover for you so it's nice and tight.
