Just finished the reinstall of the radios in the truck. Some modifications were done to the placement of the center armrest / console / cup holders to make room for all 4 components. There is also a snap in panel in the center portion of the dash I took out to help with fitment. It's hard but not impossible to find a console for this model of truck so I got tired of looking and decided it was time to break out the wood working tools and do it. The only ironic thing about this was that as soon as I finished it I went on E Bay and stumbled onto the very model of Jotto Desk console for this truck, the first one I had ever seen and decided to snatch it up any way.
