Looking through an old Street Machine mag, i came across an ad for 'Custom Built Consoles'
I quite like the look of the LC-LJ one, and i was wondering if this company still exists.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,

if your not renewing your dash, have a go at making some custom ones out of MDF, its cheap (mdf) and I can't seeing it being too difficult, I'm going to be attempting mine after I've done my lastest mechanical upgrades. Dont forget to wear a good quality dust mask, mdf is nasty.

I fitted one of their consoles about 15 years ago now to my Torana.
I think they look quite good.

Hey antelope, what's the story with the six speed gear knob? Do you have a six speed or is the knob just for looks?

If I had the knob fitted just for looks then I'd be a knob!Do you have a six speed or is the knob just for looks?

Hey guys, I have one of these consoles from them and could not be happier.
I sent them a piece of my vinyl and they sent me lots of samples to match it with.
Also, I was able to order it with anything I wanted in it.
It also fits perfect. As far as I am concerned it is the neatest way to fit a CD player into an LC or LJ
Cheers
