@Scrambler: You know, I completely forgot about this thread! LOL With all the excitement with my son's auto accident and my wife's gastrointestinal issues and then cancer surgeries and treatments, I haven't had much (any) time to really pursue this project. Back in March, I purchased a 2010 Mercury Mariner console with the Ambient Lighting package. I had just started doing some preliminary test fitting when everything in my life blew up. This is where it's at right now:
It isn't hooked up and there is no wiring run for the O/D button, park interlock or lighting yet. Not sure when I will get time for that, but I have a hunch it will be Spring of 2022. But hey, I have nice cup holders now! LOL
Thanks to Mike69's help, I was able to determine that it would fit between the seats and would require minimal trimming to make it work (he provided measurements from his wife's Escape). I have everything I need to finish this project, except for the time. We just had a bit of a cold snap here and when I turned on the heater, all I got was steam and antifreeze smell in the cab. So it looks like I will have to replace the heater core first and that is quite a bit of work.
Hope all is going well !
Like what that looks like.
GOD Bless
