Looks Good! it fits the dash better then i thought it would with that little bit of trimming, glassing it would be easy to fix the right side of it.

looks like i have something else to look for at the salvage yard!

O sorry don I just replied to ur thread... Eh, wat the hey...
I think the only differences in nbs centers is that the esky/denali (i think 02-03) are one piece... And the 00-02 tahoe/sub/yukon centers are 2 piece... And 03-06 are one piece... Nbs guys feel free to chime in or correct me here...

Hi everyone,
new member to the site and first thread, but long time follower and reader. I bought a center console(upper/lower nomounting bracket or electronics) for an 02 hoe and would like to get it into my tahoe limited if any one has attempted this or knows some that has and can give me a few pointers i would greatly appreciate it...
!!!!UPDATE!!!!

So here it is... It was shea in color no mounting bracket, no Electronic components.

After removing about 12 or so screws, its completely part.

I placed all the plastics in the tub and gave them a good scrub with some dawn dish soap. this is an important step before painting.

Here I simply hung these pieces up with sum fishin string.

I used 3 cans and put on 3 coats, this stuff worked great and its very inexpensive and its available at any auto store.

after the 3rd coat...

now here this bracket will not sit flush against the lower dash of the obs so some trimming is in order...




before trimming



After trimming... *note the 3rd pic* the console will not sit flush to the dash on the passengers side so some fiber glassing is going to b needed to make this look correct also you will have to rigg something so that the small compartment pockets are functional... To brace it down I used some simple L brackets and bolted it down to the floor and thats all... there was really nothing to complicated about this upgrade i seriously encourage every1 to give this a shot... If theres n e thing i can do 2 help please let me know and ill try to do my best... i hope this thread will atleast get u started of on the right foot...

Ok, so currently in the process of painting and wanted to take it all apart and do it right. Everything came apart fine... except the lid and bucket. Thinking I'll just tape off really good and paint unless you give me pointers on how you did it differently without breaking it. Thanks in advance. Also did you ever finish off the pass side or hook up the vents?
