Can't easily access the radio and not really happy with a touch screen fitment. Would the 00-04 MS just bolt right up? I assume I would also need the 00-04 E-brake bracket.

I was literally just planning this out in my head the other day, I can't imagine it would be too difficult to make it work. The biggest issue IMHO is the shifter, it has to be moved like an inch or two to the right for normal 2WD sports. This may cause an issue with the shift linkage and wiring but in all honestly it's nothing that can't be overcome. I forgot about the E-Brake though ._. I want to head over to the local junk yard to pull the center console out of a 00-04 model and bring it home to fiddle with but I don't have the time lately.

I have a 2WD and my shifter console is separate from the center armrest console. I think it's just a matter of relocating the e-brake.

So, I went to the junk yard and pulled apart a 2K MS. You will need the whole console and the brake bracket to properly mount the new console. Simple as that.

That's awesome that you can do that. Hope to see a picture and hear how the retrofit goes.

You will also need that short parking brake cable that goes from the parking brake handle to the balancer. IIRC, I had to use the 03 parking brake handle too. I put an 03 console in my 99. Some of the bolt holes don’t line up, but I figure enough do line up that it won’t move much.
