So I have a spare set of seats and Console/Armrest.  I don't want to change the whole seat portion, am hoping I can just pull the armrest/console off and swap them.  DOes anyone know if the two big phillips screws where the armrest pivots will allow me to just pop that piece out and switch them?

    Consider replacing your console with something newer with cup holders ..... this is from a '13

    It's a lighter grey as you can see. It contrasts quite nicely with the grey seats. Have seat covers on at the moment. These aren't the best pictures ....

Actually its easier to just remove the center seat from the other two. Just 4 bolts and the entire center seat comes out. 

This is exactly what I did.  Enabled me to get in there with compressed air and the vacuum and clean it all out too.

Two bolts are a 'drop-in' ....

Two need to be re-drilled ...... 10 minute job.

Console has a 12v utility socket, another for a computer, and the under seat compartment is made for a mobile radio.

Easiest up-grade you'll ever do.

Do you have pics a little further out? I’d like to see how it goes with the seats and dash!

Not the best shots Mike .... hope this helps.

Mine aren't hooked up. Will be adding a mobile radio soon.

The console has the wiring harness .... the truck doesn't.

Dang only one port. I'm in the process of looking at re-doing my accessories in the cab. Right now I need 3 USB ports 2 Amp minimum. Basically 2 cellphones and I want to change up my Garmin from a cigarette lighter charger to a Mini-B USB cord. I've been looking into 12V USB port and solutions.

Looks like it's different from truck to truck. My dad's truck (2014 Laramie Limited) has two USB ports.

I'm pretty sure you can also buy flush mount USB ports and put them anywhere you want.

Yeah, I know but I've not found what I'm looking for... I find the little round 2 amp USB ports all day long in Amazon.

This is a great idea. The latch on mine does not lock any longer, so I have to have it strapped if I want to lift the console and use the middle seat.
