Centre Console for a Sierra

Post by oxident »

Just wondering if anyone is aware of any stores in Queensland that may possibly sell pre-made centre consoles to fit in Sierras?

Very similar too this -

The last item down the bottom.

Many thanks in advance!

not that I am aware of.

A 0.5cal ammo box works pretty good.

Are Pics are being removed, and if so, Why!?!? or is it you have that 3rd eye thing happening when you can see what others mean rather than into the future?

I bought one of the DSE coolers yesterday but it doesn't quite fit behind the handbrake, it sits on an angle because of the raised section behind the seats. I'll just make up a chock to sit under the front and it should be sweet :D
