glove box review
dads bday so i got him the puma glove box went for the one britpart supply and was very pleased with it, quality was very good and paint finish looked like it was originally fitted to the landy when he first got it, as always with britpart a little moan, i know there easy to fit but didnt tell you were to drill the wholes, lining up of the hinge piece etc and a big disappointment was they supplied some really good security screws i have never seen the type of head on the screws before were like torx/star but slightly different which was i suppose a good thing but the negative to this was they didnt supply a allen key to fit it Shocked lucky enough i had a flat screwdriver small enough which slotted in perfectly Thumbs Up

I know what you mean about the screw holes but once I got them just right, the lid clipped down like it was always meant to be there. I was really pleased that plastic nut covers make it look just like part of the dash Thumbs Up

SWMBO says it the best bit of the Defender - full of all her crap Rolling Eyes Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing...

We do a stainless glove box kit for £35 + VAT in brushed or £40 + VAT in black. Hinges are stainless as well so no rusting.

@Killer90 - £32 inc postage

as i said, I made my own hinges and this left me with 2 screw holes, I cut off the ends of the OEM torx bolts and glued them into place, looks std.
