Not a big deal.
If the replacement cab has a low rise trans tunnel (no removable tunnel cover) just cut it out and use your old one.

Measure carefully and cut away, the tunnel is stamped already so you can see where to cut.
Look at the picture, be sure to cut well inside the line or the hole will be too big.
The little depressions for the blind nuts to fit in are already there.
