Here is my Rustoleum Peelcoat graphite wheels treated with the Turtle Wax Ice spray wax:


Thanks for the tip! I saw your truck on another post and that was the reason I gave the graphite a chance instead of the matte black. Thanks!

I installed a new double din and stereo system this week, so I lost my CD slot that my magnetic phone holster used to sit in, so I took out the top tray and cut slots in it so i could insert and tighten the CD slot holster in it, stays in there pretty solid once you tighten it down.

I've been searching for a good console organizer for my flow thru console. Didn't really care for the Husky tool bag I've seen posted by others...and the drawer organizers seemed a bit shallow for my tastes. Last night I came across these at The Container Store. https://www.containerstore.com/s/sto...-it-bricks/123

They come in all kinds of sizes and have dividers you can buy to customize. I went with a taller narrow bin, a taller 8-1/4" bin and 2 smaller ones that will fit on either of them. I bought the clear color and blue dividers The 8-1/4" bin will fit either way in the console with the narrow one fitting against the driver side where there is a bit more room front to back. Not the best picture...but I like how it's more "customizable" then many of the other options I'd seen.

I found a company on Amazon that custom makes them for our trucks. I picked one up for 30$ or so Vehicle OCD™ (Organized Console Device) Ford F150 Center Console Organizer (2015 - present)

I seen those a couple weeks ago. Thought it was a pretty good idea so I took a couple quick measurements inside the console, cut up a bud light box into a template, trimmed it as needed, and transferred it onto some thin Styrofoam between two pieces of plastic craft board stuff I picked up at the dollar store. Worked out good but I may try to find some other material at a craft store just to clean up the looks. So I have like $1.50 in the poster board thing. Well, plus the 20 for the case of beer I guess.

That's an awesome idea - I enjoy wood working and it would be a snap to make it out of that.

Yup. Exact same principle but the wood would definitely be much nicer looking! I will warn you though. I had to put a couple of the dividers together before sliding it down in there, so I had to kinda bend and manipulate it then straighten it up once it was in. Hopefully the wood won't be too rigid to bend it around a little for installation. I believe there's a video on YouTube from the manufacturer of that divider 4dtrkman has linked above that shows how to install theirs. It will show you what I mean.

Anyone ever see someone fabricate a storage box for the floor hump up front?

I had to gut my center console to install a sub in it and I have no storage space anymore.

I've been eyeing the below as template, looks easy enough to make out of 1/8 poplar or plywood strips or sheets
