How much are these typically?
These are kinda big(like the Escalade/Denali, in that they're a good bit longer than the regular buckets console). So they might charge me more for it. The last console I got was in February and it was the 88-94 kind, was $25. That one is going in Burb, unless I find a gray one(one I got is tan).

Same one as shown in pic though? I can always hack the back off it. $25 for the other one doesnt seem like a bad price. Where in Texas are you at?

Houston area, SW Houston to be exact. We have 3 LKQ yards here, one is about 10 minutes from home.
These may be multiple parts, the Esky one is. I have most of one of those I bought for Burb, but it's missing a couple of smaller parts. That one, I would take $40 for it, basically what I have in it. But it's way too big to ship....

Interesting. The construction itself isn’t amazingly difficult - some high density particle board stuff….some black carpet, the inside compartments are 1/4” think plywood glued & stapled together.

The real nice part is the top. It’s a thick clear, the inner lips of the cup holders and lids are painted in black for a nice contrast.

I didn’t like it on day1 and wanted to change it for a factory console, but on day 2 I really like the storage, and the cup holders (not really adequate in the factory plastic console)

Will get a few. The console just slides in place and doesn’t bolt down so it’s pretty simple to remove. As said earlier, it makes sense it was custom and maybe for another vehicle, but I doubt a van. The front storage area and door has a chain to limit how far it opens, but the door hits the dash before the chain stops it.

I don’t know as I’ve ever come across a red interior conversion van, and the length / height of the console feels pretty weird for a van (I own a Chevy express Explorer conversion van, and the “doghouse” that covers the engine comes even with the front seat bolster….and the floor is flat. This console has a contoured bottom and would extend way back to the center seats when butted up against the doghouse).
