WIN 20150718 200759 WIN 20150718 193156 WIN 20150718 200742 Today I installed a glove box behind the warning plate .Used 3/8 plastic ,made the box 5 1/2" square ,cut 1 the shape of the indentation, and 1 bigger for the front of box, took the warning plate off, screwed the box on thru the rivet holes ,drilled 4 holes and cut it out with jigsaw ,leaving enough across the bottom to screw a hinge on.Used hatch hold down off a boat to hold the door shut .Can't even tell the glove box is there, Will work good for phones ,sunglasses' and billfold.

Kool. Sweet idea. And fairly smart too.
There is lots of un-used space behind there.
Someone could make a drop in box for cheap if they had the connections.
Thanks for sharing.

I just installed a winch, Honda\Warn, while cutting holes for the rocker switch I noticed that there is room back there for some storage.

I love this "mod"! I've been looking for a few winter projects with my time off and this has just made the list. Thanks!

FYI: the under hood storage bin is a must for this machines storage. I also found a decent Rubbermade to go in the space under the seat.

Started my box design today. Don't have a ton of room. I have some electrical wired up around that area. But enough room to make it worth doing.

Is that a made for the P-500 under hood storage bin, and where'd you find it?
