Console bracket

[sjc315]

That front bracket is hj type, so early hx must have had the round holes like hj not the elongated holes?

Elongated holes is HZ, that is the correct front bracket for HJ/HX.

18v trim in HX is definitely Sandman..... I have ripped holes in the tunnel exactly the same as pictured, partly cutting the welds away with a grinder and belting the bracket with a hammer until either the weld breaks or the floor rips... Wrenching back and forwards on the bracket will also rip a hole in the tunnel..... Why do this? To fit a bench seat... Fit a custom console... Remove console and bracket for easier crawl through to rear...
