00-03 parts needed, column shell, console, floor shifter assembly and cable, and console sub harness for shift lock and lighting guage set is compatible w dash display. Install time 2.0 hrs. Remove column shell, remove shell halves, remove column shift components, column shift lock out secure remnants of column shifter w zip tie in up position, swap shift cables, remove old console, slit carpet under old console, lift carpet edge, you'll see blank areas were the welded studs would be self tappers will hold selector assembly securely, selector assembly will need raised the height of a ten mm nut for proper fit and finish, (I welded spacers to floor, drilled centered starter holes,(these will be a tiny dimple stamped in trans tunnel) stretch out sub harness to driver's side of heater box you will find a small black connector w a looped green wire remove and discard, plug in, route your shift cable test and assemble. Indicator on dash should follow proper desired gear. Enjoy your conversion. Ps if the handle leather is messed up Pontiac grand prix share same handle head and button. 98 is different from 00 up.

Here's a thread from years ago....

[How-to] Install floor shifter and console from a SUV...

any ideas about my previous post? You're gonna have a helluva time doing that. You will have to fabricate a couple of brackets (one for the top and one where it meets the firewall) then weld up the firewall once you have the positioning done. Then there is the wiring, your best bet is get a...

There are some wiring tips that would come I handy if you have a Blazer since the harness with the looped wire is tucked up against the firewall. The trucks did not have them. I'm thinking the trucks had them from 97+ since that was the first year the auto floor console was available in them.
I suffered with the shifter stub on the column for years. When we did the LS swap we picked up a column from a 97 and swapped it out. Swapped the ignition switch from the 96 to 97 column to avoid having 2 keys.

I paid 500.00 for wife's blazer, and was trying to keep cost down, I have not attempted to do this in a truck format yet, the wiring was supported which made it easy, the fog lights were a different story. Had to swap front lighting harness all together, from fusebox,plus bcm and headlight switch. Then swapped in radio wheel controls, just have to have Chevy program the radio so the rds radio will work full time in it.

I did mine 15yrs ago. I bought all the parts for someone here on the site. It was from a blazer, I got the shifter the consoles and wires, and the shifter cable. It looks like it was factory. My truck came with buckets so it wasn't that hard. I still need to hook up the light tho.

Wifeys s-10 blazer was ls w buckets so was same as far as ease and simplicity.

Removiing your shifter from the column isnt really that hard.

That's what I did and just left to column shift instruments.
