Default Expedition Center Console

Sorry i didnt take any before pictures. I started out with a 60/40 bench seat. I took a saw zaw to the MFer and this is how it came out. I picked up a expedition center console and an expedition bucket seat for loaner parts from the local salvae yard. Oh and i got a Harley Davidson console lid too. Here are the pics....

PS. cut your bench seat and make a bucket seat, its awesome and it looks good IMO.

Is it possible to extend the shifter and put a boot around it and have a console 4x4 shifter?

Not extending it would be to long of a stroke maybe remove the shifter linkage all together and use a cable operated shifter

What does the left edge of the passenger seat look like? How did you make that work? Did you fold over the fabric that covered the middle seat? I've never considered and expy console but dang. That looks good.
