finally got done what I tought was the biggest hurdle on my Expy center console mod, cutting the stock seat,
after months of going to hundreds of upholstery shops and always looking for the biggest shops and all of them looking at me like I am stupid when I told them what I wanted done or some trying to make me think that it was a bigger job that it really was to charge me $500+, I found a small mom and pop upholstery shop just a few blocks from my house and the guy did a fantastic job this will teach me to not always go for the big and flashy,

now I am pumped to get her done

here are some pics.

It's not missing............... I know exactly where it is.


And since you showed everybody my little teaser, I think you will have to wait until you open the box for the final unveiling of the console.

Seat looks good Jose.

Console should be completed this week and ready to ship out to you. I had yet another set back yesterday with the lid. (Stupid Interior Guy) Everything else is done and fully assembled. I just need to get the cover restitched and assembled.

don't do that please.:(

my excitement was thru the roof even before I knew what I was going to do about the passenger seat or if I was going to go with aftermarket seats, now that I don't have to worry about that, I am litterally dying to see the console.

at least give me a glimpse of the lid:whine::whine:

Maybe you'll see and maybe you won't. I'll see how I feel before I box it up.

I just got back from the interior shop for the FOURTH time for your console. It's an hour round trip and it took him all of 4 and a half seconds to fix his screw up.

It should have only been twice. He pissed me off this last time.

I know it's not bad looking, I have seen your lid I actually told E. That I wanted something similar to yours,
