Amazing mod, Dave! Looks like it came that way from the factory! I especially like the way you were able to integrate the system switches along the bottom of the vertical console with the horizontal console. True craftmasship! So are you connected to the amplifier with this setup so all 6 speakers are in play?

I rewired the amp and it is now a four channel setup using the four of the six RCA pre-outs on the back of the head unit. It now can fade fore and aft and left to right.
Fitting the skirt to match the gear shift bezel profile was the hardest part. My part is symmetrical about the centre line but the raised trim around the gear shift bezel is slightly non-symmetrical. I could try and fix it and a few joint blemishes but I have had enough of it right now.
