2001 GMC Sierra center console installation

I bought my boyfriend a new center console for Christmas (his was trashed). He's out of town and I want to put it in for him before he gets back. Can anyone help me with instructions? I could probably figure it out on my own but I want to do it right without messing anything up.

Welcome to AF, don't get discouraged here, not knowing your experience with a task like this, it can be a PITA to get the console out, I'd suggest you wait for some help. Good Luck, Merry Christmas.

The old one is already out. I don't know if he had to take the seats out or not though. They're in now. Do they need to come out for the console to be put in?

Got it, thanks.
