Custom Console

I made a new console for my truck that allows me to have a cup holder, see my gauges, and use my a/c controls. I wanted it to have a factory feel to it if at all possible.

I made it out of sheet metal and then used a small amount of filler to smooth and shape it. One of my techs here at work help with the filler work. I attached it to the screws at the a/c controls, but I'm going to have to support it more with a bottom or rear mount.

The cup hold is out of a 03 Jetta and folds up when not used. I still want to be able to carry three people and this will allow it, but the middle person has little leg room. Luckly I won't be sitting in the middle.

I left room in the console for a radio, airbag gauges, or whatever in the future.

Here are some pics. There are more in my link.
