Thanks mate sorry late reply but yet there is a good bit of cutting and head scratching involved in the glovebox but worth it in the endBe4ny13 wrote:Nice van and liking the interior! How was the touran glove box to fit with the caddy dash, was there much cutting needed to fit it in?

Re: Damo caddy build
Cutting the glovebox was if hard?
Had toyed with idea if i was able to get a cheap one
Remove the tabs and move along
Tho ended up with a door just (easier for me)
Just ashame no lock (main reason i would have liked)
But defo looks cool

Re: Damo caddy build
Yea nice to have an operational glovebox 100% there is lot of cutting to do on the dash side plastic and a metal bracket will need to be cut out in order for glovebox to fit in...
