bonefisher72 Posted August 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 i made the plug and mold for the console. i would be interested in either selling one or selling the mold. the 2 doors are 1/2" acrylic and the mold is 2 piece with a finished liner for the glove box. i dont know what the cost would be b/c i havent even thought about it. if you would be interested let me know, i would be glad to help.
