Dude, I know this video is almost 4 years old but all I can say is "WOW!". That is 10 kinds of bad-ass. That is how it should have came from the factory. Now I have found something else I want for my F-250. Bravo, sir; I applaud your excellent craftsmanship.

you have an excellent gift, nice balance of custom with a factory look. great job
Thanks Hugh!
Great build. Wish we had this sort of craftsmanship in my local town.
That's an excellent mid console. I love the integration of the factory console lid.
Thanks Roth, since we kept one in the back, it was a no brainer to match the lid to the front.
Work of art there👍 top notch console and love that it is made to look like it belongs there
Amazing work. Well done.
Awesome video! Thanks for taking the time to share. Looks like it was a fun project!
Looks amazing. You did a great job.
Matt, love the vid. Im workign on a custom center console for my f250.
That's a nice piece of work! I'd love something like that...and I'm about 10 miles away!
Stop by sometime Tom! Lets get it done!
Awsome work I have 2 13w7s.. hoping to make the time to make something semi close to this
That is amazing! love it...
+Ray Agüera Thank you for the kind words!

Thank you Ryan!
Well done matt
+adam watkins Thanks Adam!
Nice console
I agree w Dolton, you are gifted. Wat I got to do to get u to make one for my excursion?
Very nicely done! Perfect factory match for look and fit. What are the brand of buttons and bass knob?
Autoloc buttons and alpine bass knob for the PDX amplifiers.
Nice work
Man that looks awesome. Did you happen to make any instructional videos on how you made it?
Straight quality
excelente
I stumbled across this video researching ideas to modify my Excursion console to add Ham radio, HP touchpad, switches. speakers, data ports and recharging stations. This is the Sickest Console I've ever seen! edit - NVM I see your contact info in the comments below.
One he did here

alot of how much questions! this is a really nice setup, and would be interested in a setup like this for my 2000 excursion limited with a 08 dash - all of the electronics but would like to have the CB and the switch board. what would something like this run?
What did you use for the molding " bondo" looking stuff the greenish yellow molding material? Amazing work by the way!!! Love it!!
Could you build something similar, I’m extremely interested
amazing...wish that was my truck
Thanks David!
Damn sir that is sick. Love the work. I have a 94 bronco that I would like to have a center counsel built like this. How much would you charge to make some thing like this for my bronco
how much for a 2000 excursion with out sub and amp and ipad dock just something to run toggle switches for light bars or running led interior lighting
What did you use those finish the exterior?
nice. great work. build me one so i can have one for an f250
This is what I want to do to my Excursion. How much will this run me to have done?
Gorgeous. I want one!! Haha
If I wanted one shipped to Canada, how much would it cost roughly, if possible?
How you ever build one for a 06 Ford expedition center console
Did you find you needed to add fans for the amps?
Have you ever done something like this for a Chevy Express Van? I want to fabricate the console for my Express Van and I've been looking for some inspitation to know where to beggin with it, but so far this is the closest. Any tips or ideas to get inspiration from?
we want one! how much and can you ship it to lake city Florida
Impressive, this is what I'm looking to do for my 05 excursion. What does something like this run for?
Contact him directly.
Here's another he did

How to build one for mine
ported or sealed ?
Where is your shop? You did a great job. I am the current owner, and just came across this video on my CZcams feed.
How many experienced hours builder time went into the console and how much time would you expect a rookie to spend on it ?
This is a very hard question to answer as I am not sure of your skill set and what tooling you use. I have multiple table routers, bits and other tooling to expedite and perfect the process. It took me 4 shop days to build the console. Everything we make is engineered to be easily serviceable and removable. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the answer. A buddy was saying you put in over 100hrs on the
console, and said an experienced person with the right tools would do it
in 40-50hrs.
Matt Schaeffer wow. If a shop charges North of 50 per hour, that could get very expensive....and worth every penny. What I like most are the dimensions.... The depth. Every build is is 10 steps above what I previously wanted in my cars.

How bout a all black one for a 2003?
Nice
Nice job on the console. I'd like to build one for my F350. Just looking for the vinyl to tie it all into my interior. Any suggestions?
Try East Coast in Jersey. They have a lot of ford matching leather and vinyls.
How much would it cost to build this?
anyway to get more information on how you finished the outside of the console. plastic or vinyl
The outside of the console is wrapped in vinyl.
sweet
What kind of shop do I go to or look for to have work like this done? Is this considered Trim (would I call a trim shop)?
A quality custom stereo shop.
Hey matt i like that center counsel i have a05 f250 and i would like one like that if you can build it for me i will pay shipping and handling if i need to and also pay you to make it for me the only thing i dont want is the speakers or the amp or the cb everything else i want the phone dock the ipad holder the cup holder the switces and the usb please let me know how much that will be
How do I order one of these? Literally take my money.
Where are you located? I would be interested in a duplicate console...amazing work!
+Peter Bernat Thank you Peter. I am located in Chantilly VA
Where did you get this done its a beast!?
This was done by myself at our shop. Safe & Sound 703-631-4104
Is there any chance I could get the drawings/measurements for making the cuts? If so please let me know.
No, this is made one off for this client. It is not a mass produced piece. Each console would be made in a one off application.
@@therealmatty_s Ok I was able to get pretty close, ended up having a different top layout but similar base. Thanks for the video, it helped a lot.
How much would a console like this actually cost?
We need a tutorial
Where did you purchase the buttons
autoloc
What is the ballpark cost for a 2003 Excursion?
10-20 k
Looks great but I'll bet those amps get hot as hell
What is the profession that that business is. I dont live anywhere near you and I want to google places like that near me. I don't have the trust in myself to do that and I want something similar in my next truck.
Where did you pick up buttons
Autoloc
Do you have a video of the subs in action?
Not sure what you mean by this.
just how they sound and how the console performs as a sub box. basically I'm making the same thing for my f250 and I have the same concerns as far as vibration to dash and quality of bass being that the subs are facing the floor.
Yeah, i guess thats where you lost me. How can you tell how they perform based on your computer or phone speakers?? And also it is a down firing enclosure, so there would not have been a way to show the subs in an installed state.
you are right it is hard to judge by headphones... what I guess I should ask is what do you think would sound better, facing them towards the floor or facing it towards the rear seats, my amps are mounted in a different location than yours... also is your box ported or enclosed?
How much did it all cost? Not including the car.
Beautiful job!! Those 2 w7s must be overkill lol
About how much does it cost to do a center console like this one?
Its hard to answer that question, considering there is a ton of product incorporated into the console.
+Matt Schaeffer ok I see, thank you anyways
could you build me one and ship it to me?
These are made one off. The vehicle would have to be present to build.
I need one of those built for my 02 f450
Excursion!!!🙈🙈🙈
Contact me please as I would be interested in you making me one.
Hello Matt, if you want to discuss particulars of a build your thinking about, give me a call at the shop. 703-631-4104. Thanks!
Where are you located?
Chantilly, Virginia
You still able to build these? If so im interested as well
