Unique Center Console Mod...(Pics)

20 minutes with the glue gun and now the Expy. console matches the rest of the interior's braided leather.

Don't ask where I got the material. If I told you, I'd have to kill you...

Sweet Rich looks good. I had my guy who did my passenger seat put Black vinyl on the console arm rest (thanks to Mr. Rob G for that info) . Im gonna get the top part of the console painted black along with some other things on the interior.

How are the smooth bedrails coming get them back yet. Pics please if you did im dying to see how they came out mine have been sitting for over a month in boxes. Still waiting for my smooth side steps for paint.

Heres my console with the black vinyl

Your console looks great.

Bedrails are painted but my painter went out of town on an emergency. Should have them installed by next weekend. The wait is just too much....

You dog, I had the same idea, just have not had time to stop by my trim shop to see about getting the center seat material, I guess it is leather. I was concerned that it might be very thick and the lid not latch very well. I guess you can ease my fears on that subject.

Any word on my overhead and center console yet?

What's the big deal with the source of the material? Kinda turns a helpful post into a na-na-na-na-na post.

Anybody that knows me knows I'm not that way. It was just a joke...

The hottest Lightning tuner around, Razor's Edge, was kind enough to hook me up with piece from the very small amount that they were able to find. Thanks guys!

Hey Rich, we that know you know your not that way. I have gained a wealth of information from you and your sight.
Personally I have been toying with the idea of having my upholstery friend remove the black leather on my seats and replace it with something different, and then emborder the SVT in the middle of the seat back in Silver thread to match my exteriior.
Time will tell.

All right..I completely forgot that extra drivers side bottom cover I have...They gave it to me at my friendly neighborhood Ford Dealer after they fixed the bolster and replaced old with new....on my black 99.
Damn...I just had the wet Okole bench side cut up and put over the grey cover on the expy console....Hope there's enough material there..What would be nice is a steering wheel cover....running out to get it done so I can Be first for the last time in my life.....Oh..yeah and the autometer pod in the same stuff......and the insert in the console where the gauges are going in......and .and....the little side storage slits on the console...damn..I need more material....

Hey, if I can find more of the material, I'll have the braided leather on the upper seat replaced with one with a Bucs logo embroidered on it..

Or I could send you a patch from my favorite team, the Philadelphia Eagles, since they OWN Tampa Bay in the playoffs
