EBrake console T-cushion

[Keith M.]

We're these things ever offered as OE? Or are they simply an aftermarket thing? Gotta admit they are a great idea and planning to get one from AL Knoch. Looked around a bit in the TMJG etc but can't find info regarding OE or not.

Not OE...they've been available in the aftermarket for decades.

Leif-
how did you figure out what year car was involved, and what is a T-cushion?

It does not matter the year; T-cushions were never OEM for any year model.

Probably why I don't have a clue what a T-cushion is. Do you?

Yes, it's a T-shaped cushion about 2-3 inches thick that rests on the rear of the center console to serve as a "comfortable armrest" or a seat for a "close friend". I think they're only applicable to 1967-82 Corvettes.

This is a T-Cushion. As Joe said, it lies atop the parking brake console and the "T" part tucks in behind the two seat-backs.

Kudos whomever came up with it. Very comfortable and just the right height on my right forearm when anticipating shifting.

NO cup holders either. We just put the long necks between our lags.

One of those came with car when I purchased from previous owner. I resisted it for years, finally tried it. Got to admit I like it.

Indeed. It is a lost art to turn a corner.....brake, clutch, turn wheel, downshift...requiring the use of all four appendages...and not spill a drop!! ;-)
