Center console...what have you swapped in?

[davidtwelsh]

I've seen a few swap ideas here.. Who has a good swap candidate?
I already removed the center armrest!

Wal Mart Clutter Catcher seems to be a near perfect fit and it has cupholders:thumbsup:

[jeeper54]

X2. mine fit perfect and was functional.

Go down to homegrown vendors in the for sale section and look uo Men In Blacks door panels, on page 4 or 5 there is a SWEEEET console he builds for the GW. Best Ive seen yet. I have his door & cargo panels and his work is top notch!!

Short of the Super Wagoneer console, this is the sexiest center console I have ever seen in a jeep!

I bought this from Fleabay for $.01 plus $16 shipping, cleaned up and painted Nutmeg. It fits perfect at the seat belt cutouts and clears the 4WD lever. It has drink-holders and CD slots. It ends about 12" from the AC Duct and under that my new Audio is mounted. It looks sharp and clean. I made a Blank from metal where the Shifter goes and recovered in Marine teak sideing. Held in place by stainless nuts/bolts/collars. More when it comes back from upholstery.:drivin:

"Y Series"? you mean like YJ? I like that console, I'd like to see it installed!

[Dumpy]

Yup, easy for the Tahoe install. 3 self-tapping screws

My rig is pretty spartan. I'm going to use a 20mm ammo can that I picked up as a security console. I may pad the top somehow, but it's pretty tall, so making it taller is not advised.

Haven't (http://http://s56.photobucket.com/albums/g188/nameisunavailable/?action=view&current=console1.jpg) gotten even near putting it in yet, but here is a '65 SS that I will install, along with a manual steering column. Picked up a B&M shifter off of ebay. Was going to put the small Chief emblem where the plexiglass SS is now. http://s56.photobucket.com/albums/g188/nameisunavailable/?action=view&current=console1.jpg

I've never seen anything like that in a YJ.

Does he mean GM Y-body (Corvette)?

I can't see that working in a Vette all the same.

I bought this from a fella in Rhode Island...Moniker..."Home of the $.01 Auction" Here are the parts data from underneath..99 Sept, OQP33TRMAB-B
19286B, MM 9950-1A WJ
, Its going to fit beautifully, can't wait to have my"Becks" in the holder, and elbow on the arm rest hearing my new audio. OF Course, in a campsite:thumbsup:

That is a CJ clock that I fitted into the console.

This is the one I fabbed for mine.http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd128/Showngo/Grand%20Wagoneer/Jeepbuild067.jpg

Jeep Grand Cherokee, WJ:

Yeah, I was wondering about that from looking at the part numbers posted but then lost interest in researching it. :)

[svining]

It has a Chrysler LOGO stamped into it as well. Since it says WJ maybe I was mislead on model:thumbsup: . The guy specializes in Jeep parts. I have dry fit it and it sits in there nicely, and as someone else mentioned only 3 self tappers to fasten it. I will probably add a few others to secure it. At any rate the question was what have others put in. Either you like it or not.

wow, was that all from scratch? or did you start with something else and build on it? very impressive!

[Showngo]

o ,I built it all from scratch with,1/4" plywood.It has a gun drawer on the other side.
