I'm not exactly a lightweight and want to be careful of the console. I'm not the contortionist I was 40 years ago when I owned my new '65 Mustang 2+2 but, then again, I can check under the front pass. seat from the rear seat. And, maybe I can recline the front pass. backrest enough to attack the dash from the rear seat, and avoid the console. Thanks for getting me thinking.
