Gamber-Johnson MCS-Top Plate:
1. Place the MCS-Top Plate in the vehicle in the
approximate position it will occupy when it is installed.

desired position. Mark that position or make note of
which slots line up with the mounting holes in the
console base. Remove the console and top plate from
vehicle.

equipment. Grommets are provided for lining knockout holes.
7. Slide the console box over the console base. The height and angle can be adjusted if needed by removing
the (4) .25-20 x .50 Button Head Screws from the sides of the console box, repositioning the slots on the

ASSEMBLING MCS FACEPLATES: (Refer to figure 1)
1. Check that the following pieces are present:
Dual lock fastener (supplied w/console box)
(1) faceplate vertical offset
(1) faceplate top bracket
(1) flat washer #6
(1) 6-32 nut
2. For each faceplate, slide the faceplate vertical offset
(item 1) on the stud in faceplate top bracket (item 2).
Add flat washer (item 3) and hex nut (item 4). Remove
the extra strips of dual lock fastener pressed onto each
console box under holddown rails, cut to same length as
each faceplate, remove protective film covering the
adhesive strip and apply to top bracket as shown.
3. If the faceplates are being mounted in an older style MCS Console Box (those with threaded inserts on the
top surface of the side panels/holddown screws passing through slots in existing face plates or blank
panels), DO NOT attach the strip of dual lock fastener on each faceplate as described above. When
installing faceplates into these MCS Console Boxes, mark any that cover the threaded inserts and drill a .312
diameter clearance hole as shown in Figure 1.
ASSEMBLING MCS FACEPLATES TO CONTROL HEADS AND INSTALLING IN MCS CONSOLE BOXES (Refer to figures
2 & 3).
1. Install the faceplates on each control head as shown in figure 2. Adjust the faceplates so the mounting
holes in the sides of the control head line up in the slots of the faceplate vertical offsets and so the desired
amount of the control head will extend from the console. Make sure to allow enough room underneath for
any connectors that may be required. Test the fit of each control head, the tallest heads may need to be
installed near the higher end of the console.
2. Arrange the control heads in the console box as desired. Blank panels of various sizes have been provided to
act as spacers between each control head, if needed. Secure in place by attaching a piece of dual lock
fastener to each end of the blank panel and then pressing the strips of dual lock fastener on the faceplates,
blank panels and console box together.
3. Attach the MCS Console Box holddowns to the sides of the console box and over faceplates with (6) 10-32 x
.38 Phillips head machine screws.
