Pics, or it never happened….
As all that have done it before me have said and I totally agree cutting out the facia
is the easy part, making the box up is a PITB as we all say the hinge hole is the pits
Your doing a good job of putting me off this one….:wink: I am not known for my finesse and patience.
its not hard just fiddly do it over a period of two weeks.
Just remember to get "PUSH TO OPEN" catches, , they are from TV cabinet
Last post in January. Have you taken any pics yet TD?
Nice one.
Unfortunately I have air bag, but got me thinking of,
I recently pulled wagon side section interior skin off, and man is there some room hidden away just begging for similar to make use of the space.
A project one day me thinks.
Yeah mate.... I had a look at a friends GU with the air bag and I still think there is heaps of room there still. If your worried about setting the air bag off just disconnect it and remove it whilst glove box fitment.Quote:

This is on my to do list but my UHF will end up screwed to the bottom and might put a fuse block behind it with a couple of USB sockets inside
You should do it Lucas, it’s a very useful mod.Quote:

Yeah I plan to do it don't worry. I'll be using this thread to do it though as I'm not a carpenters anything
Trust me. Neither am I. Just plenty of planning and measure 100 times and cut once.Quote:

I have just received some 3kg and 6kg electro magnets which I plan to use via a momentary on button.Quote:

Plan is to glue them in the corners of the cut out and glue small pieces of steel in the lid corners
also have a 60kg magnet as well but its a tad too bulky not much but too big
wow what a thread. That's a lot of work and some real good ideas regarding building and finishing. wish I had the skill to do a job like this.
Cheers Mark
I've been thinking of doing this for a while now,,, and like you say,, after enough beers,ANYTHING is possible !
regards
Pedro
No worries Pedro. Just take your time at it and think about every meazure and cut you make. Making a template box out of cardboard was the best thing to do in the build.

Good money maker.. There was one on ebay recently for $250.Quote:
