There is enough room for a pasanger (not a rel big guy), my wife don't like it because of the "Wall" it puts up between us, or maybe the fact I have even a harder time paying attintion to her if the labtop is in the truck... But on long trips she likes it too, She talks for the first 159709876502356 miles, then wants the labtop stand back to play a game on it.....

You can never have too many gauges. While racing I just pick one and use one eye to stair (wrong "stair" but I don't care) at it....

With all the gauges and the turbo whistle it feels like your in a 747.

Looking into this today...
My front seat studs don't leave much room for adding material for a mount underneath the nuts.
The one closest to the center also has sheetmetal for the center console frame under it, taking up some room also. only about 2 threads extra on that side.

I will spend some time tonight looking into the attachment issue.

How many of you guys have power buckets with a center console?
I may design a kit specifically for that setup first.

My truck has power seats and fold up console.....

I do get races, I just have to prep. Pull lab top screen, dim the dash lights, And MAKE extra sure the cut out is closed.....
