Default Console bracket help

Just picked up a used console( column shift), but couldn't get the bracket with it. Anyone know part number or could something be rigged together?

if your going from a jump seat to a flow through you can use your old bracket and just use the back 2 bolts. if your going from a jump seat to a center console you can use the stock from 2 holes. then just use some self tapping screws for the back 2 holes.

Going from jump seat to center console. Removed seat tonight to see if anything lined up with bracket. None of the holes for mounting the seat matched up with console. Maybe I'll remove front seats and drill into bracket and use self tappers. Ideas?

I made the hole on the console factory hole a bit bigger and I was able to reuse the threaded hoke from my bracket. ive seen a few brackets at the wreckers I should pick one up.. the dealer up here are asking $634 for the one that goes under the console. and I can't justify that price. now you guys in the states thay bracket will be significantly cheaper. but the way I did it didnt cost me anything and the console is solid no movement

Save yourself a few bucks. Put the new console in, mark the holes with a marker and take the bracket out then drill and tap new bolt holes. I actually used self tapping bolts, but if you plan on taking it out again tap it for new bolts.

I actually did this in the truck and wish I took the extra few minutes to take the bracket out. My shop vac could never get all the aluminum shavings out of the carpet
