Hi everyone,
I was tired of the black hole that is our console and decided to tame it. Used 2 plastic cutting boards and foam board for a template. I made it fit over the existing factory rubber mat so stuff wouldn't be rattling around in there. Also added a pouch for an ipod since my Avic had ipod controls. And a flashlight holder on the lid. That's about it. Well, there is an amp under the console too, but that is a whole other story. Check out the pics.
Notes: I would use nylon next time instead of poly as nylon can be bought or dyed black. I might would rearrange the configuration of the spaces a little different if I had to do it again. Was very time consuming to make. Surely there is an easier way than cutting up plastic. Vacuum forming, maybe? Molds and pouring plastic?
Anyway, worked out well for what I need and hope the pics give you some good ideas. What do y'all think?
