Icon8 question about fullsize center console after doing bucket swap! help!!

just got my fx4 level2 seats in and got to work on the center console

who's installed this and how in the %&*# did you do it? haha. especially securing the front of the thing. the back where the metal mount goes is simple enough but a huge pain drilling through the floor. so for now i stuffed a microfiber on each side of it so it wont bang back and forth while i'm driving at least lol

You don't absolutely need those two bolts in. I only did the front 2 bolts, my seats are wide enough to keep the console from moving side to side

it's just the stock ranger one for the trucks that came with buckets. but my seats aren't close enough to it to hold it in place. but yes there are two holes.

the drilling was easy-just annoying with all the fabric garbage under the floor lol

i just got sick of it and gave up for the day haha
