New(er) glove box.
Posted: Sun Mar 31, 2019 4:55 am
The 50 year old cardboard glove box on my early Plus 2 saw good service but as the dash was out it seemed a good time to replace it.
The original one had an immobiliser switch on the RHS. It was about thirty years before I discovered it!
In order to disconect it so the car could proceed!
The new one (see photo, shocking focus) has a cut out, obviously for a light. Does anyone know the brand or where one might be purchased?
And is it likely it had an integral switch? Or perhaps it's on with the park lights?
Surely the lower smaller cut out which can be seen is not for a light switch...an immobiliser perhaps?
Finally, there is a "catchplate"which seems to fasten to the top of the glovebox and which might incorporate the catch for the press button glovebox lid.
I do not have one and so do not know if is possible to photograph!
Any help with these issues would be of great assistance.
