maybe you can add the cig liter at the top of the console? where K's adding a tweeter?

OH wait!
on the side of the part closest to the dash! ( toward the top so you don't hit it with your leg.)


I like the hot glue gun thing! that archie has all kinds of tricks!!

Hi All,

I know this has nothing to do with Fieros. But as I get deeper into working with fiberglass I couldn't help but post this site. This modeler is AMAZING!

That is the slickest looking design that I have ever seen! Awesome work! Marked as a favorite.

Can you put the 12v in the middle, in between the cup holder extensions?

How are you going to set up the opening compartment area? I have not read if you are going to put anything special in there or not. (I plan on reading the entire thread later.) I envision an area that would hold an LED flashlight, pen and pencil holder, cell phone holder, and Two 12voutlets like the one that you have in the pics. Just what I envision, in your creation.

I like the leather idea also. Just the whole design is great! And then you go ahead and throw in a couple of functional cup holders! Awesome project! Good luck.

I wonder what that guy would charge to build a skeleton out of aluminum? That would be very custom. You would have to build a clear console so that the skeleton could be seen. Or what about an exoskeleton built on the outside of the console? Now quit sitting at the computer and get back to work!

Hi T,

Thanks for the kind words! I really appreciate it. I haven't figured out what I'm going to do about the 12v outlet. I haven't had much time these past few days to do anything at all. I'm also fighting a bug or something... lot's of aches, pains, etc...

Anywho, I was thinking of repositioning the 12v outlet into the armrest storage bin / glove box - most new cars are that way - but it's dependent upon how much room there is.

Again, thanks for the kind words. I should be back on the console tomorrow or Friday

P,

Check this out - your comment reminded me of a concept interior done by Volvo

Question: Does anybody have a set of working power mirrors to include wiring they would like to sell me?

Hello Sofa King fantastic job so far. When are you going to post the latest updates? And how much longer do you calculate for it to be completely done.

And don't forget to post how much it would be to reproduce for those who want to buy one...

Hey All,

I've been fighting some kind of bug... I'm hoping to be rid of it by tomorrow. I can't let a weekend go to waste...
