The whole reason I have a large flat spot in the middle of my dash is the fact that the new style AC unit is taking up all the space that would be for the cig lighter, keyswitch, AC controls, ash tray, and radio. I have no space for any of those original items. Instead of a large blank spot on my dash, I filled it with an iPad.

Didn't have much time tonight, but I did manage to cut the holes in the carpet for the seat bolts and install the middle jump seat.

Did NOT see that coming...and yet I shouldn't be surprised; leave it to you to come up with something so simple, yet so awesome.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

I might be channeling Mark Anthony, but I need to know! What do you have mounted in the lower panel? I see the HVAC controls, maybe a GPS, but I cannot make out the other stuff.

Air ride, ac control, heated seats, etc. All the new truck stuff. I need to add a cigarette plug.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

Drew, it's looking great. Have you ever thought about getting the center areas of the seat done in blue and black houndstooth? That would really set off everything and tie the blue and charcoal color together. Trevor

Or possibly dye the leather blue. Don't think black would take another color well but a set of the pretty common tan seats would take the dye.
