Check out my new console, I made it myself Options

[turnaround89]

I decided to do some interior work on my car and wanted a new center console, the one before was basically a big box on the floor, and i didn't like the look. When i bought the car i got like half of a 2.0 console and used that as a template for one side and built the rest the way i wanted it to look. It is not complete yet but will be. I still need to put the led lights on either side and inside the little compartment, to give a little more light in the interior. I need to cover it in vinyl and get the thrid switch for the last hole. The switches will be used to turn the fuel pump on and turn the leds on as well, the third(i guess second since the middle switch will do this) will be used as a kill switch, i haven't decided on that yet either. What do you think?

Is there a simple way to wire the two gauges so they work, i don't have any of the wiring for them?

Anyone got any ideas on how to run the shift boot over the shifter. I want to cover the square there and will use a shift boot but haven't figured how to attach it to the console.

Well Sir,

For all the awesome work you put into that, I would think the proper sized hole saw would be a relatively cheap investment ($15 at Lowes?)

After I mentioned it I figured you were looking to make a leather boot stitched with 4 sides (like a tall pyramid). That would work for the square hole. Finish off the hole with the vinyl then staple the leather boot from underneath. Take off the knob and drop the console over the top and replace the knob.

That should give it a nice finished look.

You should make templates and a kit that guys could buy and put together themselves. Looks very clean. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)
