Has anyone purchased an after market bench seat console? Are there any that you would recommend or definitely NOT recommend?
Thank you.
Regards,
Ken

I would not recommend buying one designed for bucket seats, then arguing that it should fit yours simply because it was available in those years.

I agree. I am trying to select one of the many that sit on the seat and is secured with either a strap or seat belt.
Thanks.

Fwiw, I had one of these in the last truck I had, good quality, comes with a strap to secure it to the seat. Not cheap though. I got the one I had through amazon.

Those look very well crafted, and there's even color options. Looks worth it to me!

CSFJ,
Do you recall if you got a “narrow”?
Are the cup holders big enough to hold a decent size drink? Thanks for your help.

I had the standard cruiser console. The cup holders are pretty much super sized. Iirc, They fit the large Arby's cups about perfect. A 12 or 20 oz bottle has a lot of room left around it.

Thanks. Looks like it will hold a small powerade "spit" bottle perfectly.
