I know a few guys that have them and they work well. Especially if you don't fill your console with other crap

I've thought about doing this but then won't have any room for all the crap that accumulates in my console!

Those Waeco Coolers might fit as well, bare in mind they only go 20-25 degrees below ambient.. I know they fit the Ford exploder.
Also be aware they use heaps of power so wire them through ignition so only working when moving, they hold 9 cans.

Plenty of builds on the other site, be good to get one here..
Pretty sure they used shs and sheet metal to adapt the holes either way, and the a 12v supply.. looks pretty easy.

Looks tops mate. And nice touch with the hand brake shroud.

I love the idea I just use the centre console too much to want to do it.....

I actually just cut out the hole to the same width as the fridge so I could strap and bolt it back in because without the console it didn't sit level and just looked strange with all the free space and the handbrake just sticking out
