Custom Console - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I wanted to save my factory dash and factory radio, but wanted a modern stereo system. I made a pattern out of cardboard and my friend and I made this to go on the floor in front of the seat. Going to build a box to go under the rear seat for the 6 x 9's and a sub. Console turned out nice. I have to take the seat loose to mount it. I just ordered the FCF lowering seat brackets, so I will wait to do it all at once.

Just got my console installed with new Kenwood gear. My buddy built it out of a cardboard pattern I made. I also installed the FCF seat lowering brackets. When I made the console pattern, the seat was the same height as the console. What a difference! Waiting to get a box built for the sub and 6 x 9's. My amp should be here Wednesday.

Just finished my rear speaker box to be mounted under the second row seat. Got my new 5 channel amp. Should have sound soon....
