  • Center console

    So I worked on my console a bit this morning and got it cut just about right to fit. I will have to go buy some metal and flat bar after holidays to finish it up. Put in some new carpet and boom console. (atleast that's how Im picturing it right now)console.jpg

    I am procrastinating on finishing mine. Maybe in the spring. I have the pieces ready. Just need some motivation (like warmer weather). I still have to dye my gray flap that covers the '93 center console support bracket bolt heads. I also have to cut a hole in my carpet and rivet it on in the proper place. I hate finishing details, even though I know it must be done. I bought the packet of black dye over a year ago.

      Yes, having a cup holder would be great! I'm thinking about making a center console out of kydex this spring. I'll post on here when I do.

        If it don't fit, use a bigger hammer!

            Did you make the grey middle piece up due to there being a gap between the Familia console and the festiva dash?

                  Thanks for the inspiration. I am going to saw out a piece of Festiva dash to make a moulded bracket for my Mini Cooper drink holder. I have procrastinated long enough. Actually, I am still waiting for the weather to warm up. There was another frost warning last night. I like the size of the Big Gulp.

                        I like that gap-filler too. Been pondering what to do about my gap.
