I've had a Granada console in my '73 Mav for years...Get some of that vinyl dye from J.C. Whitney & dye it black...
: After I got my wiper switch today, I went looking around the yard and found a 70s FORD Granada that had the factory buckets and console with a column shift. He wanted 10 bucks for it and I told him if it fit, I'll buy it. It fit's like a glove, looks like it belongs there. It's dark green and my interior is light tan/brown. This is something the factory should have made optional. I'm taking my carpet and buckets out in a little while (after it stops raining) and mounting the brackets to the floor and wiring up the lights in it. I'll paint it after I put in my new dashpad and headliner. If also has 4 lights on top that I may try to wire up but I'm not sure what I need to do it.
: 1. Fuel (low fuel light)
: 2. Door (door ajar)
: 2. Trunk (trunk open)
: 4.Headlight (lights on)
: My seats are the wide 73 up style and it fits very good, just like it did in the Granada, but in a much cooler car.
