    console swap in a rc truck

    Im trying to put a full console in my 06 rc, i removed all of the trim pecies on the dash and started to pull the seats out and couldn't get any socket to fit the nut. also how do you hook up the cig lighter and pw point.

    Don't you have to modify the exsisting dash assembly in order for a console to fit? I know you have to remove the center seat, but what else is there? I've been thinking about doing this myself for a while.

    I think I used a 15mm 12 pt socket and it worked in my 03'. my console is grey and my enterior is tan but it is a work in progress. I'm tryin to get it to suck all the way up to the dash but I have to cut some **** out of the console.
