Title: Looking for a '2 glove box
Post by: Darth Paul on May 27, 2004, 14:18
Anyone know where I could get one (apart from Mr T)? I was wondering if Adam (or anyone else) could source one?

Thanks folks!  s:D :D s:D

well he painted the instrument cowl.

Ahh but the instrument cowl looks good painted sable.   s:wink: :wink: s:wink:  

I have other ideas for the glovey-lovey. I've had door and centre armrests and a gear stick gaiter made up in red leather to match the red in the red/charcoal seats. Installed 'em all today and they look fantastic (I think).  s:lol: :lol: s:lol:  As I was pootling about over lunch I thought the glovebox would look good leather-clad...

It's not all red – there's charcoal as well. Anyway, it feels soooooo gooooood on my buttocks when I'm cruising with my jock-strap on.  s:twisted: :twisted: s:twisted:

now that is very very very nice.

Darth your making me want to buy a new car just so I can do things again  s:-( :-( s:-(

Post by: Darth Paul on May 27, 2004, 22:14
Yep, old stereo. I didn't want the Fisher Price thing, and I already had the Sony remote. As for the cost, I bought the leather and the 'man hours' as an all-in price. I'd have to enquire for individual prices.

Leather looks awesome..having seen yours the other day Martin, I realise thats one big mistake I made when buying my car....Doh Makes the cars interior looks 10k more expensive.  I don't think I could even afford to sit in Darth's   s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

It's a double socket adapter. I have it velcro'd to the central hump carpet way way under the dash. I have my phone and iPod plugged into it with the wires coming from under the ashtray area. Keeps all the spaghetti at bay.  s:wink: :wink: s:wink:

The gear knob you can pick up anywhere – see my sig for what it is. It actually has a design on it that is not too dissimilar to the one in the centre of the steering wheel – I thought it matched nicely!  s:D :D s:D

Not too keen on the 'smiley' face myself – the bodykit helps it to look meaner.

Should have looked like this though.

Very clever - I had to look three times to spot the difference  :-) :-) :-)

Can you lower it and add a chin-splitter now?  You've just given me some ideas for the next one ....

The interior looks class, btw.  Glad you posted the pics, I was a bit worried when I read the first post!
