Re: glove box liner

Thanks for the comments!

Mike - It has three separate pieces, the left and right as well as the center. After some trial and error cutting I put the bottom edge under the door and aligned the holes with the ones i drilled out in the center piece beforehand. Before I completely tightened the screws I pulled down the top side of it, and since the mesh has flex to it, I was able to fit it in securely. I was amazed at how snug it fit and has plenty of strength. It wouldn't be a problem if I put something heavy in there.

As for the sides, after cutting them to size, I used rubber electrical tape to cover the edges. It was just enough for a tight seal and being it is rubber, holds in securely. Depending on how it holds up, I may replace with a soft rubber edging, like maybe put a slice in some 1/4" rubber tubing and put it over the edge. For now it holds nice and looks good.

The brackets in the pic of the underside are only being used for the A/C, there is nothing attached to the glovebox insert.
