Repop Console quality?
Has anyone purchased the repop consoles? Does the metal trim and ashtrays work with them.
Interested in the seat belt holder type. http://www.classicparts.com/1969-72-.../#.U3Ln8elOXIU Thanks!

I did not have much luck with any OEM accessories working with them.

I had one but it was a long time ago, maybe 8 years or so. It was worth about $30 new, a complete POS. It sold for way more than $30, but wasn't worth what it sold for. Maybe the quality is better now????

I would buy a restorable OEM console at that price.

Re: Repop Console quality?
I bought one awhile, total piece of crap, oem parts wont work, as said above. Dont waste your money, and as tim said buy a good used one from our classified, youll be way ahead with money well spent

I know a lot of LMC stuff is crap, does their console trim work on OEM consoles if I choose to restore? Their the only place I see selling the aluminum/chrome trim.
