Re: Project "Sweet 16"
Gotcha. I am actually running a bench seat as well, but have been toying with a few different console ideas going from the bench forward. I have contemplated going with a floor shift auto trans, as well as putting the stereo and gauges down low. I will be also mounting my police radio and siren/light controls in the truck for fun at shows. I was thinking about running the hoses up through the center and then up the firewall and into the back of the dash. Only thing that will be missing will be a defrost option. This really is a great idea! I would also suggest to get the duct work from the roof vents in the Tahoe, as it is usually nearly flat and can be pretty easily hidden. Certain cars use flat plastic duct work under the seats for the rear passengers too. Just an idea.
Oh, and I finally got around to cutting out the pieces for those body mounts tonight. That was a pain staking process with a single cutoff wheel on the 4.5" angle grinder! After I cut them out I had to go back with my bench grinder and hold the two pieces together to make them the exact same dimensions so that the pieces would all fit together properly. Sadly, had I not have seen yours, I never would have taken the initiative to do mine! Still haven't welded them together though, that's a project for after work/gym tomorrow night. Gotta go buy some more angle magnets. I ended up doing mine in 4 pieces instead of 5. Not really happy with how tall they had to be, but oh well.
