Buddy Bucket Console/Center Seat Dimensions

Can any of you buddy bucket owners out there take some measurements for me?

I wanted to see if I could get the dimensions of the "box" (length, width, height) including the dimension from the bottom to the centerline of the hinge. Also, the thickness of the material it is made of.

Also the dimensions of the seat and backrest. Same thing; length, width, and height.


Thanks in advance for any help!

Re: Buddy Bucket Console/Center Seat Dimensions

Hope this helps and not confuses you If you need additional measurements let me know. Maybe if you can make the photos with a line I can give specific measurements. Nate

Re: Buddy Bucket Console/Center Seat Dimensions

That's AWESOME Nate, thanks a ton! Could I ask another favor, and get you to measure the seat and back pads? Then I should have everything I need.

Thanks again!

Re: Buddy Bucket Console/Center Seat Dimensions

Getting ready to take a Slosh Tub buddy bucket console to the upholstery shop. Any chance anyone can post the thickness of the seat bun and armrest portions as my upholster will do the foam as well. Thanks, Chris
