How To: 2gn center console in a 1gn...
Want an extra cup holder in your first gen neon? easy...
1. go to a junk yard and find a wrecked 2nd gen neon.
2. take out the console with a phillips screw driver.
3. then you'll need to pull the emergency brake too cause it is off centered to accomodate for the cup holder. all it is, is 2 13mm nuts.
4. disconnect the cables that go to the e-brake.
5. now do the same to your 1gn.
6. now its as easy as putting it all back together the way you took it apart. but i did have to modify one of the holes on the 2gn e-brake, make the hole bigger, to fit.
7. thats it then put it all back together.
