67/68 Cougar overhead console.

 

[SELLERSRODSHOP]

cool. knew i had seen one before, just couldn't remember what it was in. :craz

 

[tarafied1]

that bracket will work on the Mustang overhead console too...

 

[johnpro]

Yup ... it's out of a '67/'68 XR-7 Cougar.

Yup ... it's out of a '67/'68 XR-7 Cougar.

I agree with Johnpro. I have been wanting to replace my coupes overhead console with one of those so I can put in a roll bar.

 

[tarafied1]

I agree with Johnpro.

hey I was close, so I left out the XR-7 part, I had pictures! :cry :lol

What are the 4 'lights' below the 2 bulbs that look red/blue? I take it they are the switches to turn the lights on/off? 2 seperate switches for each light? I've got the overhead console in my Coupe and never seen that style, be nice to know all the litte differences they did to the deluxe Cougars that will fit our cars.

I think they are idiot lights, like seatbelts, etc.

 

[crustycurmudgeon]

Like the Convenience Panel option in the Mustang.

Yeah, as I recall they were just lights. I think one was seat belt, one was brake warning light, and I don't remember what the others are.

 

[KBMWRS]

They all light up when a cop is behind you. Quite the option in the 60s. :lol

 

[AzPete]

Dang, I thought I remembered them lighting up when there was enough of that happy smoke in the car......

 

[opentrackerSteve]

they are just indicators. T-birds had a similar panel but their indicators were engraved and round.... I have one from a 67 tbird floating around in the Garage bario somewhere....
