Fitted my glove box - badge on or off?
Hello

I bought this off a forum member ages ago and was brand new unused, thought as its raining just do some easy jobs..

I watched the you tube video as I fitted it (I guess a huge proportion of you have already done this)

Please with the results... I stuck a badge on using some double sided tape, Is this a Yes - keep or No - remove?

One of the handiest mods you can do I reckon, and I still can't believe LR didn't think of this as a factory fitted item.

As for the badge, personal preference, but not for me. 2007 - Stornoway Grey 90 XS SW - Gone
2002 - Black Discovery II - Gone
2014 - Montalcino Red 110 XS SW

Mmmmm.

Not sure.

I think badges for the outside, personally, but that's just me.

Great mod, mines still in the box! Purchased last August Rolling Eyes

Also got the heater deflector mod to carry out Rolling Eyes

I suppose if in some kind of twisted world, you forgot what you were driving, your badge would remind you Thumbs Up Cheers Simon

I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you

The thing I like about the glove box conversion is that it isn't obvious.

I think the badge draws attention to it a bit. My preference is off Thumbs Up 2015 90 XS CSW TDCi - Beautiful
2007 110 XS DCPU - An itch that needed scratching
2005 90 Td5 XS CSW - Utterly brilliant
2001 Discovery 2 ES Auto - A phase I went through
1996 90 Tdi CSW - Uber reliable
1989 90 2.5 Petrol Hardtop - My first proper Landy
1985 Range Rover Vogue V8 -Troublesome

Badges are to tell people what you are. I think the passenger will work out what they're in by the draughts, leaks, noise and the passing traffic.....
Maybe put it on the bottom corner of the lid, if you want stick with it.

Hello

Its looking like....Off more than on Very Happy

However as I cleaned the top of the glove box first and had only a small piece of double sided the chances are when I go back out to the car It's probably decided itself....


To fall off Laughing

Great very practical easy mod. For me badge off. If you stop in a hurry it will imprint on the passengers forehead!!

I have the badge on mine, but it has to be off to the left or right to look better. Once on it does look good. Andy
