Rear Glovebox - Unusual Uses

[Jurgen Schmidt]

A random thread, I appreciate, but I wondered if I wasn't the only person to have used the rear glove box (in between the 2 seats at the back) for an unusual item.

I recently went to Costco and bought a large pack of eggs (36 I think), and rather than run the risk of crushing them in the boot with other items, placed them in the rear compartment for safe storage....

Are you sure you drive a Tuscan?

Do you mean the bit in the boot above the fuel tank?

[Jurgen Schmidt]

No, not in the boot, it is between the 2 seats, chest height (when seated), perhaps it only exists in the T2

Probably one of the most least interesting threads....

[blueg33]

Definitely absent from my Mk1.

I find it quite useful, used to store my spare PAS relays in it ... until I changed to 45 amp one

Also got a spare throttle cable in there.

Is this something you only get in a convertible, I don't appear to have one in my mk2???

[Jim Clark]

Me neither but am intrigued! Any chance of a pic for clarification? Cheers.

[F1CCF]

Yes, we need pictures!

I think it is a convertible feature, between the roll hops , where the"dog shelf" is .....

Thanks Keith, I need to look to see if I've got one.

Ah yes, please ignore my previous post.
I keep old Channel Tunnel and ferry tickets an stuff like that in mine.

I have a factory installed DVD player thingy in mine with little room for anything else. So, as of yet, unused..

[F1CCF]

Yeah, definatly a convertible thing, I've not got one. Would be handy though, I could keep my old Deep Purple and Black Sabbath tickets in it

Second that, I've not got one in my 2S would be nice to have somewhere to put the eggs though

On MK2s and Convertibles ....Is everyone aware that your steering column adjusts in and out aswell as up and down..... Just it took me 2 years before I realised
