The pattern isn't perfect, but the fabric looks pretty good in the console. Most of the imperfections are hidden by the lock/light. The sides could be brought up about 1/4 inch on both sides. (The bottom of the console isn't flat, it bows slightly down at the middle. I'm not fancy enough to adjust for this in the pattern.)
I think it turned out pretty good, especially since it took about $1 worth of fabric from Walmart. And I'll use the Super 77 spray elsewhere, likely to hold gaskets in the air cleaner and heater. (Supposedly it can be used on water pump gaskets, too!)
I painted my console with engine paint or wheel paint, I can't remember which.
This is the pattern I made. You may be able to download the full size image and get the dimensions off it. Use them as a guide, I wasn't super accurate in my fabric cutting, and I made the template from the piece that went into the console.
This is what the fabric looks like before it goes in.
Mask the sides, and spray just the bottom with Scotch Super 77. It will be easier to adjust the fabric if it's only sticking to one surface at a time.
Insert the fabric, adjust it front to back. Pay special attention to the area under the lock/light. Once it's in, lay down one of the sides...
...and spray the area behind it. Then make sure the fabric is smooth all the way across. You have a few seconds before it gets really tacky.
The finished product.
