Re: New! MPAC Straddle Prototype

I am in for one. Would like binocular case on both sides. Maybe a mix and match combo for pouches to mount. Can you post up when production starts?

Nice work, Doc.
Now lets have one for the rear of the console.
Or an over the seat back fabric mollie base unit to add packs too. They have them for jeep seats but the pockets and packs are sewn on. So no chance to rearrange.
Better yet, let's have an entire Springtail replacement for the entire junky, plasticky center console from front to back. Complete replacement.

Maybe contour the leading edge to match the stock area. You wouldn't have to necessarily increase the depth dimension but you could.

Re: New! MPAC Straddle Prototype

I think many would be interested in an entirely new center console design...some pretty *****in features could be incorporated

I've always thought that the FJ's center console was nearly wasted space, as if they design guys had gone in and said "hmm...well, we gotts cover this transmissio hump, and, umm...well, I guess there's room for some other stuff. Oh, yeah - cup holders! Let's call that part done and take the rest of the day off!"

I ordered a whole new spare console today for measurements for the M6. We will take a close look at the possiblities of building a complete console...but I would imagine that it will be very cost prohibitive due to the complexities of the design

Re: New! MPAC Straddle Prototype

hows about a switch replacement panel for the center console. Where you could use factory switches and add a couple of aftermarket switches to the panel? just a thought.
