Dash Tidy

Post by spet25 »

Morning Peeps,

I have purchased a dash tidy from JK's. With no screw holes or instructions and the thing being pretty flimsey, how do you attach it to the dash?

Send it back and wait for a decent 2 piece second hand one to come up for sale
What a long strange trip it's been

As said get the proper one with the folding map table, Very sturdy.

They come on ebay but sell for a fair few bob.

To stick it use sikaflex.

Back it goes then.... Perhaps I could construct my own using yogurt pots, milk cartons and duct tape
it would be stronger.

let me know if anyone wants the plans once done

Don't waste your money on that preformed plastic bag. This is all you need. Seed tray and double-sided.

Had it on there for three years, will come off with no damaging screw holes and holds everything I might need up front. Few even realise what it is. In fact came in a pack of three for £1 so could have done two other campers making them 33p a go! The only addition I made was to add a non-slip mat to the bottom of it, again - £1 shop.

Does the job.
