Interior consoles
Hi All
I am in the process of determining which after-market accessories to fit inside my 02 single cab F250. Electric trailer brake controller, at least one CB and a couple of other things, like the tracking control for my driving lights, head the list at the minute. Problem is, for all its size, there is very little dashboard room to install such items and have them look neat.
I can mount these things on brackets under the dash, next to the handbrake and between the centre of the dash and the bin between the seats, but it looks a bit bodgy and can make things hard to reach.
I can also source consoles that mount onto the ceiling but I don't like these, as items fitted into them are hard to see to adjust.
Do any of you have any information on interior consoles that can be fitted into the F series cabins to accept brake controllers CB's and the like? I would like to have a moulded console that matches the dsshboard colour and surface texture so it looks factory, that fills the gap between the existing centre console and the dashboard that I can put these goodies into.
Any suggestions welcome!!
