    that useless centre panel with flip up cover

    Hey folks,

    Assuming the fancy models have something exciting here .... we don't
    So - this got me thinking - has anyone done anything cool with this area? We thought about maybe using that are for something ... but don't know what lol.

    Any ideas? If you have pics, even better!

    Some have fitted gauges in three, others have fitted ram mount attachments, I like the idea of an ejector seat button or rockets launcher toggles

    It's where the factory GPS unit goes.

    I like the RAM mount in the back so you can mount an iPad GPS when touring.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    the ipad in this position blocks no vision and is verry solid with no movement






    on the left hand side of the mount i have fitted a flush mount dual usb plug by baintec and is a quality unit like this one

    I've got my EGT gauge and RAM mount in there. Not perfect but it's used I used to keep WD40 in there to use when I hear that grinding noise from the passenger seat, never seemed to work

    Like the pics! Thanks all
    Was thinking about replacing the factory stereo with double din stereo/satnav/reversing camera, which then left us wondering where to put the CB. So might rethink that idea now. Cheers folks!
