Can't remember the front mounting, but do remember that the back off the console was mounted by 2 screws inside the arm rest at the bottom. Them screws went into a bracket that was welded to the trans tunnel under the back of the console. Shaped like a U-Bracket. Would not be hard to FAB up in a pinch.

There is a front bracket also that the area under the ash tray mounts to.

Bracket under the back is screwed down as is the one on the front. There are also two screws directly through the plastic into the tunnel under the brake handle cover.
