Picked up this Esky center console AND gauge cluster for $30 from local junkyard. Only downfall was someone literally took it apart piece by piece.. so I had to piece it all back together. Luckily they were nice enough to leave the screws in a nice pile on the floor lol.

The clip is broken to hold down the center pad, its missing the rear face controlls (for HVAC or radio perhaps?) And the tabs for the rear cup holders are broke. Anyone know where I can find those parts and how to possibly remedy the cup holders?

Now I ask is anyone in VA because the same yard also had not only this 00 Escalade (sorry the console and cluster are gone lol) but they also had a 00 Limited Tahoe. It was still pretty whole. The ground effects were intact, one fog light, the fog light bumper was intact but needed tlc, the interior seemed fairly clean and in good shape, the cluster was still there, and they had all 4 tires and wheels in the 'showroom' less two center caps. Figured Id pass the word along. Its located at Chesterfield Auto Parts in Midlothian at Hull and Genito.

WTF, here in NY prices are so inflated. Cheapest I got a console was for $100 but it was complete and rear cup holder functions flawlessly!

Honestly...pick up the body kit off the limited and flip it!

The actual cup holder piece is fine. Its the molded ears/tabs on the console itself are broke

i did not grab the sub. I got the console with the factory amp, and the cd changer. I figured it was more trouble then it was worth to try and intergrade it all, so I took it all out. I still have both items if anyone wants them. anyways heres a sad pic. I went back to the yard today to grab the 120 cluster and fog light switch, both of which are for sale too.

That sub is what the panels screw to plus the top I'm begging you to go get that sub. U can throw the amp away and changer then you can wire the sub into your system.

I'm begging you to go get that sub!! That's what holds the panels on and the top down. Throw away the amp and changer. you can wire the sub into your system NOW this sub will keep the bass sound inside of the
Truck not blocks away so if you are a bass head you will blow it but you still need it to hold the panels in place.
