DIY Off-Road Center Console

If you are building an overland or off road vehicle - you might need to reconsider your center console! With radios, auxiliary switches, power and navigation considerations, building your own might be the best way to go! In this video we explain why MDF is not a good solution, and what you might use instead for a durable solution!

'We do the things, we build the stuff'...thats a plan I can subscribe to.

[@jhbryaniv]

Happy new years to the overland bound youtube family!

[@barryinn1778]

Ok , you have us interested . Where is the final build? This has been a year ago, and no finished console.

[@davidbrady9686]

I want a Parnell for Christmas next year……

[@cliffrush4541]

Can't wait! Looking forward to the finish product! I have a 1996 LX

[@Visuals1134]

Can't wait for the finished product!I want one

[@atx1459]

Excited to see the console.

[@davidzimmer2694]

Nice work. I like how he rotated the front of the dash to the driver.

[@jad19851]

I need a Parnell friend…. Amazing work and so cool to watch thanks

[@TheOneNOnlyAirboss]

Been Wanting To Build One For My Truck, Thanks For The Video

[@High_Key]

Wow! Now this is a unique project you have going!

[@bretthawton]

I really love to see the design process on these projects!

[@charlietoner]

So is there a line of “You might be an Overlander if:…… your centre console is made of aluminum….” Overland Comedy! Hehe

[@TheGentilcores]

Just. WOW!

[@J.Young808]

Can always get a new word or phrase from Michael, - “Electronicals”

[@masaw7187]

Very unique. But will the inverter have enough airflow to prevent overheating? Just curious 🤔

[@Simple_Youtube]

Are these going to be available for sale, including the rear drawer system??

[@josecuervo99]

What website was Parnell looking at for all the reference?

[@OverlandBound]

Think it was just Pinterest

[@Tastewithnewdrinks]

Awesome👍

[@vonlogan1]

Sorry, but where did your ebrake go? In one video you wanted another 1/2 inch of clearance and with this video, it looks like the ebrake is eliminated. What did I miss?

[@oz2151]

Nice 👍

[@jasonkelly9373]

What was that name somethin tec on his screen when u were lookinging at consoles i didnt hear it right

[@ChrisZBr0wn]

Kibbetech

[@joshuas10]

This is awesome!

[@sierramantrvlnus]

Yay!

[@Fakingittilimakeit]

Would have loved to see it made from bamboo

[@dvonehrlich]

Where do I get to ask Parnell about his shop ghosts? Was that a half joke? Just saying’ I subscribe to 90% paranormal channels and overland channels so if there was one that had both I am in.

[@jose627493]

That's something I'd watch, overlanding to the most haunted locations in America.

[@renerivera7291]

I'm gonna go 😂😂😂

[@nosnerd1967]

14:00

[@LaneB16]

First!

[@grahameroberts8109]

I’d rather have one made from aluminIAM.

[@storminmoorman7444]

You should switch to a jeep so i can piggyback on all your ideas.
