[QUOTE="DarynCashmark, post: 373833, member: 16165"] Console problems... (Sorry, no before pics) I had a few smaller cracks and a hole from an old fishfinder[list][/list] in the console that were kind of bugging me. (Not sure why) Who am I trying to kid? It is my OCD kicking in again. Wish I could get some help for my condition. It is causing a lot of extra work!!! Seriously, I looked long and hard for a new console, and this search is how I found this forum. I was able to find some replacements. None were an exact match, and they are pretty expensive. I figured it might be more work trying to get a new one to fit and mate up to everything might be a challenge, and the new consoles did not have enough room for some of the things I wanted to add. (Switches, stereo, etc.) After much thought, I decided to try to repair the cracks in the fiberglass console. I have never done any fiberglass work before and the console has a textured finish. For these two reasons, I was a little afraid of trying the repair myself, but I figured, worst case, I will have to buy a new console. I have the cracks filled and the console is sanded down and ready for the pewter colored bedliner that I am going to shoot it with to try to cover my "excellent" (LOL) fiberglass work. [/QUOTE]
