First, what's a "consolw?" :D

Second, make sure you do a proper intro on this site.

Third, guessing you mean overhead console in your 355 for added storage overhead?

Wow, how perfect is that.
@cart7881 how straightforward was install?

Thanks. It was a bit involved as the shape of the base did not match the flat headliner of the Colorado. Took some time to build it up with fiberglass so that it would match. Unfortunately, I neglected to take pictures of the work on the console, including the headliner material installation. The console was mounted in the Blazer with one screw in the front and two in the back and that is what I used to mount it in my truck.

The forward mount is a piece of aluminum angel with a threaded hole.


The aft mount is a .062 steel plate. You can just see the two offset holes for the aft mount screws at the rear of the plate.

Did you have an onstar mic? If so, how did you deal with that?
Disabled OnStar, removed mic. Console covers hole where mic was installed.
mounted like that would survive a nuclear fallout lol
lol, I just tried to copy the Blazer installation, where it was secured to the roof supports.
