New Console Mk4 the worse effort so far.

word of advice " dont do things when your not in the right mood.










See what i mean, this is my 4th & last attempt.
I WILL FINISH IT ONE DAY

in my honest opinion when you have a day like this i keep the sledge hammer well hidden, you on the other hand have it cocked and ready

foil lining looks good, keep at it it will work out,

The foil is Dynamat Extreme the best sound and heat deadner you can get... and as for the sledge... well i used the 10lb mashy on the 1st 3 trys

Oh I dont know,,Looks pretty good to me.
I was building something similier for my HX but will cover it with heat stretched vinyl so as not to show my lack of wood working skill.

nearly finished

looks ok on the photos.... wait till you see how i botch mine up. This is gonna be fun, hav absolutely no idea what i'm doing.

neither do i.

When a roof console gets built in a Holden, SHOULD they get attached at the suniser and rear vision mirror mounts, or is there somewhere better?

Hey Agro, you could always use a couple of tex screws straight through the roof turret,,,Just remember to silastic the shanks that stick out the top of the van so as it dont rust.

I love your taste in music on the tv monitor,,John fogarty all the way

Don't laugh, i've seen it done.
It was a phone in-car kit and the control unit was screwed to the firewall on a suzuki carry van.
The screws stuck out 1/2" through the firewall. (silver screws on a dark blue van AND they stood out).

Hey it looks great to me, nice job.

I know how much of a pain roof consules are, I've lost count of the number I have built, trashed, tried again......

Had the current Van for 5 years and this is consule number 7. Yep! Still not happy and it's coming down again.



Got a few new idea's now, like always, 99% complete, 100% better idea.

Hi John was great to chat with you last night,, i love your console... want to do mine ????

I'll get mine done right first (and make all the boo boo's on it!).

Think Muz wants one.......

Then I'll give it a hit, I will be better experienced to attempt a Monster consule thats would be required for yours!

not a prob.... i'll be waiting
