heres is a custom made by me, all fiberglass tablet slide mount. its almost dont. the top will tilt forward so i can remove the tablet.





ok this pic shows the tablet. you see that line on the front section that were im going to cut it so the tablet mount is angled at me when driving.







pic of the arm rest, you can see the hinges, and pockets for them.

a few more pics of the console. tomorrow when i test fit it into the truck ill get more pics for you guys.

its a slow process but will get done.

 

[big scott]

ok just a small update....

So when are you walling it? Lol

Center console is coming along nicely

 

[big scott]

funny..... lol. im hoping the end of spring. that will give me time to get all i need.

ok heres pics...

thats just primer... i need to sand it down to get it smooth. then im going to vinyl it in black. pad the arm rest and get the tablet mount motorized . yes im going to push a button and the tablet will flip to the side. was going to have it flip from top but i have no room. so it will tilt from the right, that way i can pull the tablet out.

Yea, some stuff is fun and other stuff is a pain. I refuse to do fiberglass. I've got a friend who does a lot of work with it, so he's going to do some minor stuff for me.
