Default Auto vs Manual centre console?

Is the centre console on the auto interchangeable with the manual? Would the auto shifter hole be the same size for the manual shifter boot?

Someone cracked and broke my window switch covers as well as the e-brake console plastic

The cutout for the five speed transmission shift lever is almost square where as the one for the automatic is significantly longer.

That's what I was afraid of

Does anyone have experience or recommendations with plastic welding or some type of material to bond plastic?

The e-brake plastic is cracked as are the covers for the window switches

I used an auto console when I built a manual truck. I filled in the extra space with some scrap ABS. Ill save you a ton of hassle by telling you theres no resin that holds it. best to rivet a support underneath the hole and then resin it. the rubber pad on top will hide a lot.
