    Smile Tie down brackets for fridge

    Hi All,

    Quick and easy fix for tying down the old fridge if it doesn't suit to use the factory tie-down brackets.

    Scabbed around the wreckers on the weekend and found some baby seat parcel tray brackets in a Commodore sedan. They're already rated AND come with a nice snap down cover to keep it all looking sweet when not in use . Bolted them to existing floor pan weld nuts. 40 litre Engel fits nicely between the two brackets.

    If you have an Engel the travel base is great no need for tie downs, the feet of engel engage the travel base and lock in place.
    only need to press one button to remove. I've mounted mine on a sturdy piece of marine ply. Great product IMO, suits 40
    and 60ltr fridge from memory

    Your local 4x4 shop should have bucket loads of discarded OE tiedowns from different models.
    They remove them to fit ute liners etc. Dime a Doz IMO ,black, chrome and Gal, some super strong
    as well even though not rated would more than likely hold your fridge in place
