I'll check I may have some extra material that is really close - if I haven't tossed it, you can have it.

I get them refurb'd. Haven't been to the yard to get any good cores tho. Do You have a good one or is it missing completely?

I have a very good condition console lid that I pulled off a junkyard Marauder 10 years ago.
I was going to cut it down and use it for a driver's door arm rest addition/mod.
I'll dig it out this weekend and take pictures.
I may have the hinge mechanism too.

Joe, that would be great. Please pm what you find. Thanks!

I really would rather a color mis match than some weird texture. I'm not to rough on my lid ;)

My "person" charges $60 to re-cover.
Just purchased another core off ebay. May not need recovering,
as its already balck.

I thrashed through my garage last weekend but couldn't find the console lid.
I'm going to check some boxes that I have in the basement and see if I can locate the lid.

that sounds fair, to do a nice job

I have this material now, and it is bang on over a stock lid.
I need someone with skills to pull it on and staple nice...we'll see.

Joe, that would be cool.
If I do re cover my cracked core, I still need another lid..
