center console fix?
anybody know a way to beef up the center console so it doesn't break?
i need something to stop a new one from fracturing when my dogs and girlfriend work their way into the back.
i've thought of putting sheet metal or plywood on it. also, is there a way to rehab my broken piece so i don't have to pay $120, or is there a way to turn a tape on cheap piece into a functioning console.
thanks, froggy.

Just what are your dogs and girlfriend doing in the back? You must have small dogs and a small girlfriend.
