ritchierich1 Posted December 14, 2003 Report Share Posted December 14, 2003 I have a 94 Regal and was wondering if any other 94 or similar console would be able to transfer into my car. Likewise with the gauges. Want to do a little something different with the buick. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Rockstar Posted December 14, 2003 Report Share Posted December 14, 2003 Yea man.. Pretty much all W-body consoles from 88-96 should fit w/o a problem.. I too am looking for something different for my Lumina.. 95-96 Grand Prix center console w/ cupholders, along w/ 95-99 Monte Carlo Leather seats.. Boo yah!!

ritchierich1 Posted December 14, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2003 Definately need something with a cupholder. The one buick has really sucks that came with it originally. I don't know how many times I have spilled crap 'cuz of it. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93GTP Posted December 14, 2003 Report Share Posted December 14, 2003 Tell me about cupholders, I have a fucking GTP and it has none! Something wrong with that picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LukeZ34 Posted December 14, 2003 Report Share Posted December 14, 2003 Tell me about cupholders, I have a fucking GTP and it has none! Something wrong with that picture. TGP's lack them as well.. Except in the rear console. But a lot of good those do for the driver! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted December 14, 2003 Report Share Posted December 14, 2003 Luke, you're forgetting about the cupholders in the glove box! What a frickin joke... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaroonRegal Posted December 14, 2003 Report Share Posted December 14, 2003 From what SuperBuick told me, any first gen W-body console should swap in to yours. The guages, however, is a different story. You know how your guages are like...well, almost not there? Yeah, that pretty much means you'd have to swap in an entire dash unit from another car. Once you swap in that dash unit, it'll look dumb with your doors. Once you swap in new inner door panels, they'll look dumb next to your inner quarter panels...and the cycle continues.

GPXGRL Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 I'd like more than one goddamn cupholder.. it's difficult.. very hard.. //sigh// Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremy Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 I have two in my Cutty, but they are WAY to shallow to be useful....are there any consoles from a w-body that look good and have useful cupholders? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
92turboLE Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 the console i have, i pulled it form another 5-speed GP and where most consoles, from what ive seen, the ash tray is replaced with a square.... thing?? that kinda acts like a cup holder... it holds a can of pop perfectly, but it doesnt really like the Ub3R big cups from Burger King, or taco bell for that matter. - justin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Compufreek Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 I have a 95 GP that have two cup holder and they are surprisingly useful. They hold the big cups ok but they are a little close to hold two big cus well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 ritchierich1..... Look into an older Regal full digital cluster. I don't have any pics scanned yet (cause I've been really lax) but it is really sweet. Your 94 is the last year to be able to do this swap. I have a "90" swapped into my "91". If you do a search on "Regal digital dash", "UB3 Cluster ", or my name, "lee" you'll find some posts of the complications and all the parts you'll either want or need. I think it's one of the bitchier swaps because there is a separate module to pick up to replace the current E/M..etric module under the radio head unit. I sure like mine though. I'll have to get to work on scanning my pics of the swap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GPXGRL Posted December 16, 2003 Report Share Posted December 16, 2003 Yeah, the cup holders are wayh too shallow.. I can't even put in a medium cup from McDonald's w/out it tipping over when I turn from being stopped.. //sigh// You should see what the floorboard looks like..

phantomshado Posted December 16, 2003 Report Share Posted December 16, 2003 Thats why my interior is still in perfect condition. I don't allow food, drink, smoking or messy shit in my car.

Compufreek Posted December 16, 2003 Report Share Posted December 16, 2003 Yeah.. hard to clean that shit out.. So how would one go about CHANGING their console and cup holder and.. god.. you get the point...? On mine you just pull the trim panel where the cup holder is forward a bit and lift, it just pops out. Then pull the shifter hand off and lift off the trim plate. then just unbolt the four bolts and lift out the console. I don't know which will fit in your car but it really is easy to do.

SmokesGTP Posted December 16, 2003 Report Share Posted December 16, 2003 I got the shallow ones only good for a can of soda, theres also holders in the door for a can I found out recently. I never noticed till yesterday. It'll hold a medium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmokesGTP Posted December 18, 2003 Report Share Posted December 18, 2003 No it's only 94+ coupes I think, it doesn't hold it that well though. It's designed for a can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
