Still working on this project. LOL.

Controls have been replaced with standard switches that i installed into some single boxes (the type you use for wall switches and whatnot), these are on the left side of the chair, as if you were in the drivers seat.

I've also added standard outlets to the right side of the chair, for laptops and such..and two USB ports for cell phone charging and what not.

4" cupholders have been installed in the armrests. 4" holesaw + 4" PVC pipe couplers.

I found some outdoor furniture end tables my grandma gave me a while ago, they've been in the garage, being used to store my spare gas tanks on..painted them black and now they're next the chairs.

Future plans:
One day I'll get around to upholstering the chairs.

Still want to make a laptop/keyboard table that spans the cupholders...I found some flexible exhaust pipe looking stuff at Handyman a while ago..figure that would make for a good vertical piece to come out of the cupholder with...
