Sold dad's Caddy STS and used the money to pay for a portion of the 2000 Odyssey. Got a deal
from buddies, friends who left the country for a church mission

Really for the room to carry two wheel chairs, but now that dad passed, just one wheel chair for
mom and for family outings.

Didn't like the center console and took it out for the plastic tub to hold the stuff transferred
from the Caddy. Ditto the rear tub.

Building up my wood workshop (new band saw, table saw, dust vacuum system, etc) and might find some
time to do the Suburban and Odyssey some day. For now plastic tubs and that has turned out to be a
decent GF filter of sorts. Dumped one who didn't like the looks of that (another didn't like the
1991 Caddy STS and had me drive her BMW 7 series out on dates).

Here is what it looks like now.

Odyssey console n pull outs
Odyssey console rear

The tray on top is held by double sided tape. That is also my cup holder, but I don't eat while
moving and have an aluminum/stainless/insulated water bottle (hot/iced coffee, gateraid, etc).

Tray is from GoodWill ($4.99), Tub from Target ($8.00), small tub from Target ($5), IIRC

That aluminum foil ball is from the wrappings of Costco runs (Pizza, dog, etc) and will toss it
into the recycling bin when it gets too big to close that cup tray.

Seat covers came with it, so the OEM seats are almost new. Noodling new seat covers or not.

Second tub holds extra tissue, reusable shopping bags, etc and the garbage bag.



This is the toolbox tub (an old one used to hold briquettes for camping (now a galvanized can as
the plastic sides were bowing out)

Notice the two 3" ABS pipe unions. They will become the cup holders when I get around to
figuring out where/HOW2 mount them on the center console.

The wicker tray will be double sided to the lid. Bought that tray from GoodWill for $3.99 and is
brand new from the looks of it.

NAPA pads are oldest daughters pickup (no time to order Praise Dyno...her last set lasted +60K miles)
