I'm done for the night but like the title says I found the parts from a 00 4runner. I managed to get the whole console to the shifter, e brake assembly, switch cutouts and an air vent (fixing previous mistakes) for 50 bucks from the local salvage yard. reading the whole thing through now i realized i could have grabbed the lower silver bracket for the underside of the console from the 00, but i used the existing one instead...which is one of the main reasons i made this thread. thanks to Bob98SR5 for the site

if you plan on following the steps from 4runners.org and retaining the existing bracket, do NOT plot your holes 1.5" to the back like it says. For the best eye-out, use the accompanied picture with that step for the proper hole locations...it ends up being approx. .6". Anywho, 4 hours later i realized my mistakes and have them fixed. Still have to rewire the ect and rear window switches to the console, got to dark to do it so it'll be tomorrow. anyways, i just wanted to share, if you have any questions down the road don't hesitate to ask and i'll update the finished product tomorrow.

 

i have a blue center console for sale if anyone is looking for one to do this mod.

 

well this isn't really going to be pic intensive, but this is what i had to wake up to this morning



finally got the wires where i needed them and managed to clean up a few loose ends along the way, anyways here's the finished product and i couldn't be happier



thanks again to yt, bob, and everyone else who had documented the retrofit. woohoo!

 

Miller - want us to find you some new seat leather or replacement seats?

hope this cupholder mod is working out for ya....

good looking ride on your avatar

I have admired before- not sure if I told you previously or 6 times already....

 

haha i would love a new pair of seats, i was looking at some hunsakers i don't have the money to spend on seats. both have pretty much lost all support and comfort. don't know who 'us' is but if you have some seat replacing faction of course i want in

 

Saw some front leather seats awhile back on ebay from an 01 Limited.

I believe they ended up going for $475! plus shipping but they were leather and heated.

By us I just mean the forum members-just let it be known or post up a "WTB" want to buy and I bet someone will have some for ya.

Hunsakers? I don't know what that is....I am a bit slow....
