[Red Oktober]

Nice mod

but the piece of ply could be improved

I think you should pinch a bit of side-board like mr wildsmith did!
would look much smarter, but not sure Annamarie would agree

says hes going to teach me how to read maps

I know the ply is a bit tatty ..... it was the only bit i could find in the shed. ...

will have to see if i can find a better bit from somewhere

Your passenger better wear a seatbelt at all times or risk losing her head under braking...
Nice idea - just a bit of an injury risk IMHO. Smaller and foam covered might be better. It's way bigger than your laptop, so more than you need.

 

[Annamarie]

its a net book not a laptop and i don't want my neck cut off l can't believe he didn't think of that

 

[Red Oktober]

Anyone got any better ideas then

 

[karl webster]

Hey carl

Great idea and i will be doing something similar myself.

As andrew stated though,safety could be a issue.

The bracket that comes off the glovebox handle,does it just screw onto the shelf? If so maybe just weild a horizontle bracket to it so if you had a bump annmarrie would be safe.

Just a thought

Simple job, does just what it says on the tin, and you could cut a circular hole in it for a cup holder

 

[Red Oktober]

the bracket is sat in the little reccess where th glove box handle is ...and screwed to the bottom of the shelf

I always make sure my passengers have their seatbelt on ...no mater who they are ...always have done ..always will.



If any of you greater minds have a better way of doing this ... i'd really apreciate your input please ....

Have now made it smaller ..... (it's now only an inch bigger than the footprint of my netbook)
and .... i've used a better bit of wood.

 

[karl webster]

You dont hang around

 

[Annamarie]

[karl webster]

Doing the boring stuff,no chance

 

[Red Oktober]

[karl webster]
