08 center console
I really like the look of the new 08 CF center console. Does anyone know where I can order one? I have seen something about downsouthvettes having one with RED stitching. If so how much does it cost and do I just get a new piece or send my present one in?
Thanks!
Thanks!

And if you want Down South Vettes to work their leather magic and stitching on it I think Gene at gmpartshouse.com will send the console directly to DSV, I think. Good luck. I think the '08 console is a great upgrade mod.

Only reason I can see to buy one & have it dropped shipped was if I wanted to keep the factory original! See no need for that?
Sorry, I'm talking about the center armrest!

Thanks for the plug all.
Currently the 1LT-3LT No F55 heated seat and non heated seat versions are backordered. I don't imagine it would be much longer.
I do ship them directly to Gerardo for their conversion if you'd like.

It's not just red stitching. Gerardo removes the vinyl and replaces it with leather, then re-does the stitching. It cost me $750.00 total. ($400.00 for the console ,$350.00 for the leather and stitching makeover)
