KITTs upper console

Post by corlando52 » Mon Sep 22, 2008 11:34 pm

Hey guys! The KITT I am getting has this as the upper console, but I don't recognize it from any of the seasons. This will eventually be a Season 1/2 KITT, so I need some input. I'll be asking lots of questions once I get started on this.
Thanks!

Chris

No One? Yeah, I didn't think so. I'll probably have to replace it with a "real" Season 1/2 upper console.

I know i'm going to get many people replying to this for accuracy but I'd go with a season 4 upper console.It looks pretty much the same as a season 2,3.

The first image is of a conversion but still looks pretty good.

The season 4 is less bulky & more tight fitting...
I'm going with a semi accurate / semi functional...

I have the red leds for the front facing the driver, then I have the 10 other led buttons on the side facing the driver...
As for the flat piece facing down, I'm not putting buttons... I'm putting in some Cyberdyne Digital Gaugues...
Here is a template I had custom made to house them...

I'm legally blind... and cannot read the bar graphs (I can see the lights, but not read the legends)...
this way I can look up and see exact numbers for volts, temp, oil pres, fuel, boost and air / fuel...

Hey guys...can anyone identify the one I have? I just don't recognize it as one that was used in the series.
Thanks!

Many people have custom parts that they put together.But if i were to hazard a guess,i'd say that's closer to season 2/3.

Found it! It's a Marks Custom Kits Season 3/4 upper console. See it here, middle of the page:

I'm going to have to change it out for a Season 1/2 eventually. Guess this one will go up for sale.
