Haha! Late post but thats really great cuppa. Puts mine to shame.
How handy is it having the second glove box now. When I have time, which is virtually never, I will be making version 2.0 on the glove box. Five minutes and I can remove the hole box in mine.
Whats it like with no top on the box too Cuppa?
As for anyone else who does this and grinds that middle post off the lid like Cuppa did. Loctite 406 will hold it. That chit is very strong plus there is virtually no stress on it anyway.
Thanks Mudski, I'd still be thinking about it were it not for your encouragement.
Having no top on the 'box' is the way to go I reckon. Can't think of any downsides & the extra height is what allows me to stash my ipad in there. It just gives more space.
I can remove the box in a similar time, but would need to cut the carpet where it folds over the front along the bottom. No biggie really.
I have since added a small thin neodymium magnet to the catch to hold the door shut. It was ok, but occasionally opened on corrugated road. Now it's really good.

@ Cuppa or Mudski how big can you go,
like is the top of the other glove box your limit ??
I went as low as I thought possible TD. When working it out I placed some 5mm or 7mm ply across the top of the existing glove box to give a small clearance.

Yer I'm seriously thinking of version 2.0 right now. As like cuppa does, he can store his Crapple in there. I can't. Plus my next one will have a hidden lock so its locked and even pressing on it won't open it. Big plans, big plans. I just gotta buy my Galaxy Note and GoPro first. Bloody close to day from buying a GoPro, stopped at Autobarn in Eltham to get a relay and they had them on Display with a looped video on one being used in about 30 different ways and places. GAWD I WANT ONE!!!!!
Ok so Ill make a block up that the guys at "Q" mart can put on the machine that vacuums sucks plastic over any shape, great machine makes 2 door pockets out of one piece of wood.
When I look in my door pockets now it adds up to a bit so having a decent lock seems pointless. If I can make template in one hit I will other wise will be in 2 sections like Cuppa did.
3 sections on mine TD
does this come in a kit?
Wish I didn't have airbags lol this mod I would do!
Department of the Interior do one, but it is smaller internally.Quote:
