Well I do have my seat in, and they come with a flip-up consol between them. What I meant earlier is I haven't yet installed my door panels and I want to put a floor consol in that runs from the dash to the base of the seats.

The seats, from a Dodge Dakota fit perfectly, have the consol and a pop-out cup holder - 60.00 from the local bone yard ;)
