Hi All
On the S1 glove box, what did TVR use as a pull, I have 2 holes at the bottom, picture if you have one. Mine just says TVR stitched in
Thanks

Just a small pull tab Alan. No frills on Austin

I think later S1's had a small round wood rffect knob pinched from a small cabinet drawer.;)

Can do a pull tab, don't like the idea of a wood knob from B&Q, so TVR ish

Just to confirm, the S1 glovebox has a small tab at the bottom of the door, and uses a sort of overcentre hinge to keep the door open. Pretty crude!

Hi,
the old one had some sort of handle on it, looks like it will gat a tab on it. noticed the hinge has the words Ferrari stamped on it, how cool is that, my old one is the wrong colour so it will get a now one.
Alan

you can see where the handle has been. this one is scrap if anybody wants one (just the material)



I could put the bog roll behind it a bit like a kleenex box

You need a bigger cut-out than that for the gloves Alan

Never get a plunger in as well

You can if you manipulate it in a special way

My glovebox had a wooden handle which appeared to be original, I have subsequently painted it black.
The glovebox hinge is the type normally fitted to kitchen units and also appears to be original'

Should we add IKEA to the alternative parts list ?
