Passenger side storage cover.

I know there's a post about this but I can't find it so here's mine. I bought a textured ABS sheet, cut some cardboard templates, cut out the ABS a little over sized and tediously used a belt sander clamped in a vise to sand it to fit. I then cut and using heat bent some hooks for the bottom of the panel to hold it into place, used Permatex ABS adhesive to attach them to the panel (that stuff is amazingly strong!) and here it is. Now that area is actually useful without everything falling out of it. The small opening is covered with a piece of ABS I just slid in there and my jumper cables are holding it in place.
Update: These are the "hooks" that are holding it in place.

 

Looks good. Nice and clean.

 

Thank you. I'm happy at how it came out. There is just enough room in the front of the cover to get my fingers in there to pop it out. My slight miscalculation worked out! Too small to see unless you really look at from the back seat.

 

This is the ABS that I used and the adhesive is Permatex 84145 PermapoxyBlak Plastic Weld.

Making the template and then getting the ABS trimmed using a belt sander clamped in a vise was tedious but you really have to take your time. Hope this helps.

 

What are you using for holding the top in place? I'm playing with some old kydex i have laying around from my holster making. Using "touch latch" for the top, but don't think the magnet is strong enough.

 

Nothing. The bottom hooks are pretty tight and hold it so far with no problems. The ABS is pretty thick ( 3/16") and rigid.

 

Any chance of making another one of these ?

 

Sorry but no. It was time consuming and while I really like how it came out I don't want to do that again.

 

This is my take on the mod, one day i will take better pics. Surprised the china parts/ mod shops haven't done this yet.
