Hey Folks,

Im going to fit an additional first aid box under the drivers seat for some more storage - anyone done this before and can offer any advice?

Cheers

If you havn't done it line the inside base and ends with thin foam or some fabric (I chopped a rectangle out of a black towel and spray glued it in).

Means if you store key, etc. they are prevented from sliding or rattling around.

About to do it, £12 inc postage off Fleebay for the box and a massive £4.66 for the bracket.

I'm assuming that this mod is a non-starter if you have a fire extinguisher fitted in front of the driver's seat?

Can you link to the ebay item number ?

I found this item 110383180078 and emailed them about the bracket and screws...
Hello, The box and the bracket will cost £17.65 inc VAT and P&P.Our info does not show any screws to fix it to the seat so I must assume the screws are used to hold something else on as well and will already be on the seat.
Is that true about the screws ?

That's actually where I got my box from, when i e-mailed them about the bracket I did'nt get a reply so just got the bracket from my local stealer.
