New console w/pics

Here is a console I'm working on. I still have a few things to do but I was so exited about the cup holders I couldn't wait. You can also see the cover panel I made for the completely hacked (for a crappy radio) dash. What do you think?

That's cool, does it come with a passenger seat ejector button too! I also like your gauges what kind are they?

I built it with some spare lumber I had laying around. I still need to round off the top edges. The case is covered with aluminum, the dash speaker cover is aluminum and the little compartment below the cup holders will probably get covered too. The radio delete/panel/ugliness hider is stainless, only because I had it. I used a motor I didn't need from my seats, it worked out pretty well and may make it easier if I want to make the dash speaker cover a pop-up Navi. That might be to many pop-ups...naahhh

The gauges are TPI-Tech, I found them on ebay. Electronic speedo with digital odo and a quad gauge- oil, fuel, temp, volt. I like em. They were cheaper than the other choices but I think they are cheaper than I wanted. On a side note, I've been banned by my wife from buying new gauges for a while, that ejector seat is a good idea and will most likely come in handy.

I really like the VDO Vision series from Summit.
