Center Console Refrigerator?
Has anyone converted their center console to a refrigerator? Seems like a pretty easy thing to do if you could find a 12v cooling element sold separately outside one of those portable 12v refrigerators. I've seen the OEM Ford kits to turn the console into a cooler by using ice, but I'd like to be able to cool via a 12v cooling element instead.

Doesn't the Ford Flex have a center console cooler? You might be able to see what parts are used in the Flex and then see if they will cross over to the Super Duty.

If you put it with the fan pointed toward the back of the truck it would be inside the console under the rear cup holders. You could put vent holes under the back storage cubby slot. Just a thought.

I keep a cooler in my truck 365/24/7. I've always wanted a 12v ice maker that I could mount in the bed of the truck, spending $2.00 every other day on ice adds up. In the winter it's not bad, ice is easy to come by, but any time it's above 50° outside I need ice every other day.
