I definitely understand why you put the console in though...I love mine!

It was well worth the wait. Could you give me an estimate on the total cost? and maybe a good wright up that us non-mechanics can follow?

Oh yeah, great job on the console!!

Excellent walkthrough...looks like something one could do over a weekend and at least get the mechanical parts done. The finishing touches look like they could be a pain but you did an awesome job. I would have thought your truck came from the factory like that if you didn't say so.

The site cut off some of the longer descriptions with the photos, so I added sheets with the complete descriptions.

I, as many have already said, also wanted to say great work on your console conversion. The sole reason I bought the truck was because of the console. I think it looks really great in the regular cab.
