Weber Genesis Silver B BBQ island help

So I scored 2 Weber Genesis Silver B grills on Craigslist in great condition! We are in the process of building a new home and knowing I wasn't going to be able to afford my $500+ new grill I grabbed these. Does anyone have any pics of how they incorporated this type of grill into an island. Its not as easy since it has the side controls. Just looking for some good ideas on how to do this. I am going to be adding a gas cook top and have a table top charcoal grill on a lowered counter top with fridge underneath.

any photos or suggestions would really help I'm trying to do this on the cheap and still am unsure about the siding and counter top...

Thanks Guys

Flickr making it WAY too hard.
 
My Genesis Silver is a workhorse.. and wish it looked as good as the 2 used units you just bought! Mine is about 12 years old and I replaced the burners 2 years ago because they were just starting to show some signs of wear/rust. I like it a lot, but after getting into more serious Q I do wish the burners were front-to-back instead of side-to-side so I could do indirect when I don't have time to setup the Egg and get it started. But really, as gas grills go, you can't ask for more. 12 years later original starter and it still fires on the first shot, the body is solid.. they're good stuff.

That's great to hear! I actually got both of them for $40. There was no way I was going to pass them up
 
Sounds like a hell of a deal, have you considered just building an outdoor cooking area instead of a built in grill? There are many advantages and would be a lot easier and flexible
 
I built this for a Silver B, actually 2 of them one for the house and one for my camp. Hopefully it gives you some ideas.

I've had that grill cranking well over 500° and the wood around it never even gets warm. I've built in the proper clearances to prevent any chances of burning the wood. Like i said, i've built 2 and even cooking for hours on end in the middle in the summer i've never seen a portion of the wood get the slightest bit discolored from the heat, let alone hot enough to catch on fire. If you build it right, there's no chance for the wood to catch fire. The details are in the clearances.
