    Hi, folks.

    I want to be able to have AC from the rear-bed inverter inside the cab. I'm told the inverter is directly below the center console. How do I get there to run cable to the console?

    I am very confused. You want to run something like a small window AC unit off the truck’s inverter???

    Nope. Truck has air conditioning. I Just want alternating-current outlet from the power inverter inside the cab -- not just at the rear bed.

    Seems the simple first step is remove your center console

    Never having seen one in person I venture that it is going to be a sealed unit things might be easier to just run wires back into the cab

    Buy another Inverter and hard wire in under the dash.

    just what do you plan to power ??
