Thanks to everyone.

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone here at GenVibe. It's been an awesome year here with you all. I have shared a few Vibe milestones with you this year, as I made it to Ohio to my 1st meet. I found many ways to improve my Vibe, including today's...... Installation of an '06 style lower console and storage compartment AND ....I finally found a Matrix AM/FM/Cassette/CD unit!! So I think I am done for a while....unless someone decides to paint the car . http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=5132 since GM certainly isn't going to.I became a GenVibe God this month!! http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=19923I also got voted in as Member of the Month, (*Big thanks to Kari for this WONDERFUL Idea!!) http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=20288We saw our friend Mike leave the ranks of Vibe owner, but sadly he became victim to a suicidal deer in the 1st 48 hours of G6 coupe-love. http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=19635 Luckily, things ARE going to work out there.We saw another good freind move to America, well.....Alaska sorta counts, right? And, 2 more of our group have paired off, best of luck to Kari and CP!!!!

i hope your not leaving tnparts id like to thank you for all the help on the forum!

[tnpartsguy]

naw, not going anyway, unless God has other plans that I don't know about....just with the holidays and the end of my 1st year here, I just felt grateful, and thought I would share.

First off, thank *you*!Quote, originally posted by tnpartsguy »Installation of an '06 style lower console and storage compartmentsecondly, what's the difference?

[tnpartsguy]

the '03~ very early '05's had a problem with the latch, the new design actually has a LATCH, rather than a push button to hold it closed. The stoopid thing stayed open more than it did closed.

[GMJAP]

Ah; okay. And the new console trim has a rectangular hole in the top of the compartment area, right?

[tnpartsguy]

Yes, it has a much larger-than-before hole where the latch actually goes into the shifter surround trim. I went ahead and got both the compartment and the shifter trim (aka the front console) instead of cutting a larger hole in the existing part.

So TN, would it work to just get an '06 compartment for an '04, and would it work? Besides the rattle in my dash, that *&#$ compartment flopping open ALL the time is my biggest gripe with the Vibe! If all it would take is to order a new part, I'd do it!

[northvibe]

man id love a new lower compartment, mine is just chillin in the open position.

[tnpartsguy]

*shruggs* I don't see why not, I just chose to replace both parts rather than fool around with enlarging the existing hole, plus it gives me a lower console assy to sell at the next week
