Thanks guys. When I started building the console, I wondered if everyone would like it. Guess I got my answer. I'm glad I decided to make it out of metal though. I don't think, actually I know, it wouldn't have been as easy to fine tune and make the changes that I've been making to have it exactly how I wanted.

Got a little bit done today. Had a lazy day, so wasn't much.

Made the angle for the stereo better to see it. I ended up taking off 3/4" at the top and brought the bottom out about an inch. That way I figured I wouldn't loose too much room for wiring. I'm really going to have to watch myself though if I'm hard shifting. Not a whole lot of room between the shifter and stereo now.



I then put the cup holders in place. I think I'm going to put them there as I still have to put the Vintage Air control underneath the stereo. I would still like to find some cup holders that are a bit smaller.







And to answer the question about what cup holders they are, I just went to one of the local boat shops and they brought them in for me. They were about $18 each. Here's the brand.



Back to work in the morning, but hope to get back out to the shop next Thursday. Will update as usual.
