Glove Box + CD Player ? (Help!)
ikube - April 22nd, 2004 at 12:45 AM

Are there any place I can get my CD Player installed in my Glove Box with a Carpeted box ? Or do I have to make one myself ? Looking to buy one from somewhere that will fit straight in! Please give me some info :)

Thanks!

I have seen them for sale in the machine7 ads in the UK mags - obviously you need RHD version so probably not the best to buy from US.

Any other options ?

Thanks! ;)

Try companies that make flight cases for electronics such as turntables and camera equipment. If you call a DJ supply company they may be able to help you with some local contacts. A lot of flight cases have to be custom built around the technology, so something like this should be pretty easy.

although not completely what you are after, i suggested to another fellow a while ago, if the stereo will fit the standard radio hole, why not place it behind the radio cover plate, and hinge the plate from the bottom, thus hiding the stereo when not in use and leaving you with a glovebox?

hm ... not a bad idea, but I guess leaving it in glove box is more straight forward and easier ? .... I'm too lazy to get all those fixed ... also I believe the CD player is bigger than the original hole..

Thanks anyways!! Learned something new :D
