Guys, I need some advice. I got new buckets from an 88 sunbird this weekend and bolted them right up to stock risers. Bolted right to the floor and done! I am wanting to build a center console to house an I pad, cup holders, and storage area.

Problem is the trans hump is offset side to side on the cab. The passenger seat is right next to the hump and the driver has about 4-5 inches to the hump. I did notice that the new driver seat is to the right of the steering wheel a little... Would it be best to slide the driver seat towards the passenger side so the gap in between the seat and hump are the same? That would make the console "look" centered but then there will now be a gap between driver door and the driver seat BUT that will correct the driver seat being off centered to the left. Any thoughts? Or am I just overthinking this... ALL input is appreciated!!!
