I don't recall ever seeing that center console before, maybe I missed that thread. Looks pretty frickin' cool. Is your climate control in the glove box? Love the 2 tone paint job also. Might have to do something like that with my next one.

Thank you for the kind words. This center console was custom made by a friend of mine who has been in the car audio business for 20+ years.
He also did the door panels and rear setup.
He also moved and lengthened the wires for the climate control into the glove box.
