    Are consoles from any other year exactly the same as 69? Which other years "fit", and what are the differences from 69? Pictures welcomed!

    Pretty sure they changed in 70. Automatics anyway.

    If you’re asking about automatics, ‘68-‘69 are the same, ‘70-‘72 are the same. ‘73-7? look like 70-2, but are shaped differently where they meet the floor.

    Also the 68 and 69 consoles have a light facing back to the back seat and the 70 71 and 72 do not.

    The 68/69 only had gear indicated on the console only that was back lit, 70 and up gear indicator on the speedometer as well as console.
