huh! why did you put it that way!! :shock: If your glovebox suddently opens for example it will break due to the weights.
I put mine at the metal frame you can see in your picture.

1: It will not open suddenly, I changed the lock a bit. :shock:
I'm not that crazy :twisted: Even on roads with the famous "kinderkopjes) it stays closed.... :wink:
2: On the new glovebox, I replaced the plastic pieces to hold it open, by a little metal chain. :wink:
3: Mounting on the frame, OK, but you have to know how many space there is when the glovebox is closed, if you want to put something in it! :)

So no drilling, no second frame, ...... Just pure basic solution.

Little update:

Replaced the red "BMW" plate between the taillights by an original black "louvered" one.

Found a nice and clean rubber for the trunk.
Thanks Leon! :wink:
So stripping the old one, cleaning and mounting the new one.

@ retroBeemer:

Didn't you know your wife had a twin sister, the beautiful one? :lol:

@ loentje: I bought it in a normal cartuning shop in Bruges.
14 euro if I'm not wrong.
So everyone can SEE an old radio, and HEAR a nice sound.... :wink:
