Who on here made this? I am going to be making something like it in my woodworking 2 class and I was wondering if you had any more pictures or some measurments to help me. Thanks.

That's pretty nice! I too would be interested in measurements and/or more pictures.

I'm not sure who made the one in your picture, but I believe Edmond made one real close to that for his longhorn.

Take some cardboard, a utility knife and some tape and you can fashion your own template. Then you can fine-tune it to meet your needs. once you have a design in the cardboard you are satisfied with convert those dimensions to your plywood or whatever material you decide to make it with. If you didn't live in Arizona I'd also mention to allow for air flow from your heat vent on the floor.

That looks pretty good, and should be relatively easy to make. Back in high school I made something similar for my dodge charger, as it had buckets, but no console or provisions for a drink holder. For the truck, I am thinking of making a console out of fibreglass, give it a nice smooth OEM look that flows with the early 90's buckets and custom door panels I'm making.

That's pretty cool, speakers and all in one simple box.
