Roadster glovebox?

[PaulRSchmidt]

I’ve done some searching, and can’t find a source for a glovebox for my roadster. One place was mentioned in a thread here years ago, but the web site is gone. Any pointers?

(Yes, I might be able to fabricate my own, but the door shape, hinges, and lock are complexities I’d rather not deal with if I don’t have to.)

AFAIK, the only option currently available that doesn't require a bunch of fabrication is the complete FFR vinyl dash with glove box (https://www.factoryfiveparts.com/16984-roadster-vinyl-dash-with-glovebox/).

This one is kind of pricey and bear in mind ********** has some negative reviews. However, I recently ordered this and received it within a week. looks fairly well built. I have an MK 2 so the FF vinyl dash would not work for me due to the precut home for steering shaft. The carbon fiber dash is another option from FF that would have worked but I prefer the classic look of the padded vinyl dash.

Yeah, seems a little pricey, but I may have to suck it up. The vinyl dash isn’t good for me, either: I’m using the Russ Thompson turn signal mod, which requires a larger than stock opening.

Thanks!

You can easily open it up for the RT.. I'm using his mod with the vinyl dash.
