Centre console replacement for Patrol
Was going through Youtube videos and found this neat looking centre console replacement for Patrols. It has proper size cup holders and fits in the same space as existing one.
It's an Australian make. How easy it is to import these into SA?

Re: Centre console replacement for Patrol
From the website it does not loo like the ship internationally. Think the best bet would be , if you know someone in Australia, a buddy of a buddy of a buddy. Let them order it and then when they get it, they can courier it to you. But that will be pricey.
Have you asked around if someone can't build you a custom one, with the centre console and cupholders already there? Just by shifting them and some awesome 3D print work (Might be cheaper).
I just installed a fridge in my centre console and moved the cups forward a bit as they are detachable

What Izak said. I'd also recommend chatting with Anthoney Forgey from Ant's Custom Workshop. He will be able to manufacture something like this. Send me a PM if you do not have his number.

Re: Centre console replacement for Patrol
I do have a buddy in Australia. But as you guys mentioned, it does indeed get bit expensive to import. I made some enquiries, import duties for this is around 25% which is crazy.

Re: Centre console replacement for Patrol
Using cardboard I designed something that fit bigger mugs/bottles and has it 3D printed by my neighbour, works like a bomb.

Sure, here is the post with the fridge installed. I just used a flex cf8. Small 8Liter console fridge. It goes to -20 and works like a charm. Had to have the centre console cut a bit to have it all fit. But so far its working 100% and is just an extra battery mon on the house battery at the back

Re: Centre console replacement for Patrol
Mullet Mods in Australia 3D print these cup holders for Patrols. They look really well designed and there is no need to change the entire consol.

Re: Centre console replacement for Patrol
This looks even better. Is it possible get this made in SA?
