Center Floor Console

I want cup holders! I though installing a center floor console would work pretty slick. I could have cup holders, gauges, a phone dock, extra insulation to block noise, and maybe speakers (I hate how beat they get in the doors). Most of the aftermarket pieces don't really fit my need since I already have 2nd Gen seats with a center console. After lots of Google image searching, I came up with this:

http://www.classictruckconsoles.com/...lbenchseat.htm

I think this could fit the bill; however, I wanted to see if anyone else already had a better option.

Thanks guys!

well I don't know about doing a whole center console but this is how I done the drink holders in both my trucks. I used genos garage 94 to 98 drink holders in both trucks. my first gen it slipped under the seat and sits right on the trans hump with a couple short screws in the hump

on the second gen I installed it just like its supposed to be. it just sits in the pocket in the middle console and the lid still closes good.

these are by far the best drink holders I have ever used, they have deep pockets so the drinks don't spill and they fit pretty much every size you can think of. let us know how it turns out!

They used to be bright and pretty now there worn out and dirty and sun faded. I have had them since 07. There hitatchi bottoms from cabelas. They fit really good but are kinda thin. I would suggest getting yours from marathon seat covers. That's where I'm getting mine for the crew. I have 03 silverado seats in the front and the factory bench in the back and they can make custom fits covers for both. Also I was able to find the same material on the internet that they use. On the covers for all the door panel inserts so they all match. I'm going modb on this one too. It seems to match the best with the grey carpet and the headliner that is going in
