Console Project

Hi...hope to be working on the car this summer. I need to build a console for a ratchet shifter (and coffee cups) . I cannot decide if it would be best to do it out of wood or sheet metal. What I cannot figure out if I use wood, how I attach it to the car especially if I cover with auto carpet.

There was a guy that designed this couple years ago but I cannot find his name.



any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ian.
