Title: glovebox Post by: surferboy on February 02, 2005, 10:26:55 PM i've pulled the glovebox out (that was a silly thing to do ) now no amount of gaffa tape is going to hold it together .
what are the options for replacing it ? i'm not worried about being original. i was thinking of building a slightly bigger one to keep all my beachboy CDs in. whats the best/easiest material to work with ? 8) 8) 8) Title: Re: glovebox Post by: robbzfc58 on February 02, 2005, 10:36:48 PM 8) 8) 8)surferboy...rex spares have repros for about $40

Title: Re: glovebox Post by: JB on February 03, 2005, 08:38:14 AM I also had the thought for cd's but you will find that the wiper arm has not much clearance from the glove box, which stopped me from making one to fit.

Covered inside with carpet.....looks and works sweet. Regards Alex Title: Re: glovebox Post by: Sarge on February 03, 2005, 08:32:49 PM I made mine out of fibreglass. Just made a template one out of 6mm MDF white board. Then a little gelcoat and a few layers of glass.
