A search on Amazon I found this similar one. I may order it and see if it will work unless anyone wants to do it before me?

Hopkins EFF-BLA Go Gear Black Efficiency Console

That is exactly what he has. I will buy this and cut out for the Shifter and see if there is enough room to attach it with the shift boot plate so it doesn't slide around or so I won't have to drill more holes in the hump.

Thank you, Google/Amazon search wizard! ! I tried for about an hour and a half on Amazon changing the wording and this never came up.

I found that in five minutes. But I am a master at some search stuff and Amazon and eBay. The secret is to find one similar and then look at that similar items listed below and keep clicking till you find what you want. The first one I clicked and I then slid the selections over on my phone it was there several choices over. I searched my search results first in Amazon and did not find it then resorted to my techniques second.

I was thinking just use Velcro on the bottom to hold in place. If you have vinyl or metal on the hump just use both sides of Velcro out peel n stick on the floor and the other side on the cupholder.

Glad I could help. I will be watching your results and may do it for mine. Range of motion would also be key. Able to hit 4L and all other gears.

No way I would carry around a 50 pound cupholder. If you wreck you will die or be really hit with that flying around the cab, and it will blow out your seat. Haha

@Raybo135 I apologize for getting your hopes up. Here it is, not how I remembered it to be, two box compartments:

This was an earlier model. Current model takeouts:

I had removed the rubber insert from the first one to see if a Nalgene bottle would fit.

Either one or both, yours for the price of postage.

P.S. I must tell you, these were removed from new Fords that had a metal box up-fit the operators wanted.

In a rollover, it will smash every window out after it knocks a tooth out and busts your head open. Haha

Seriously though. I have seen some **** thrown all over the place and out of open windows in non roll overs. Crazy forces at work. That said I have a 20 pound bag of fire gear in the back of my SUV and a huge tote of camouflage that weighs as much or more. Seats are folded flat. They will probably bash me in the head or the back of the seats in a collision.
