    I got the metal lid cut, primed and painted. I attached a piece of 3/4" plywood (sized to fit in the opening of the console) to the metal lid piece with 4 flat-head wood screws. The 4 holes in the metal lid were counter-sunk to allow the screws to fit flush. Tomorrow I am receiving the bamboo...

    I ordered a bamboo drawer organizer to use as the top of the center console. I decided to go with a drop in lid. I will use a piece of 3/4" plywood the size of the opening to the console. I will attach the plywood to a piece of sheetmetal that is 1-1/2" longer and wider than the opening. I...

    Had a computer crash this weekend -so today was the first day I could work on the center console. I took the console to my friend's shop in order to fill in the welded seams before painting. He had some compound that is finer than Bondo and volunteered to apply it on my project. He...

    Last Thursday I sat down and resigned a center console for the truck. I had taken the dimensions earlier in the day. I plan to make the center console fit around the bench frame that supports the bucket seats. Got a nice drawing done. The center console will include a radio/CD/mp3/USB and SD...

    Update 1of 2 About a week ago I decided it was time to remove the worn bench seat and install the bucket seats I had purchased for the M1008. I started by removing the items stored under the seat. I then unbolted the 4 bolts holding the bench seat in place. Once I removed the bench seat I...
