Manual Trans
On a 4 speed G body does the shifter hump fit over the carpet or under the carpet? I saw a picture a 79 GP on here and it looked as if the hump fit over the carpet. We are about ready to buy some carpet for a 4 speed car and we could not locate any that was manual transmission specific like you would a GTO.
If it fits over the carpet how did the factory fasten the hump to the floor? Thanks |

The carpet goes between the metal hump (it's spot welded to the trans tunnel) and the plastic interior "hump". The interior plastic hump is secured with a chrome metal ring screws down through the plastic hump and into the metal floor hump.

Thanks for the information. So is the carpet molded for the 4 speed hump like a GTO would be?

I'll have to check to see if mine was pre formed. ... I just went out and checked my carpet (it's out of the my El Camino) and it doesn't appear to be preformed. It looks like a hole, just big enough to fit around the steel trans hump, was cut out of the carpet. The plastic hump then overlaps the carpet by about 1 1/2".
