Center Console Photos/Ideas

Looking for photos of center console options for bucket seats.

Homemade, aftermarket, factory, whatever you are using or have seen.

You can see my thoughts on Dad's truck's console starting around here on FTE.  Although there is some earlier that may be a good starting point.

And there are some pics of Big Blackie's console here: Documentation/Picture Gallery/Big Blackie.  But to see how he did it and what all was in it you'll have to go back to FTE on that as well.

I wish I could find a decent extended cab like that or even a crew cab.

Thanks. I've got a factory blue one and then I've got a tan one from a newer model but not a big fan of the plastic.
The truck came with a speaker box one which I like because it's solid but still interested in what else is out there.

sounds like fabrication time, grab some hard wood ply and some vinyl.

Thanks Gabe. I like the wood top and how the cup holders are setup.
Plus you get the Jurassic Park drink effect when the music is on

Gabe, is it just a speaker box, or does the lid lift for a little storage?

Those look like my favorite HF goatskin gloves you've got there.  

I don't have buckets, but do still have a little meranti strap in console I made from scrap back in '85.
Hard to imagine that thing has been under my elbow for 34 years.
 Jim,
Lil'Red is a '87 F250 HD, 4.10's, 1356 4x4, Zf-5, 3G, PMGR, Saginaw PS, desmogged with a Holley 80508 and Performer intake.
Too much other stuff to mention.

Yes it's just a box for the subwoofer, not sure where I got the gloves, or where they are now as I took this pic several years ago.
