Snapped this glovebox at a recent UK event, I didn't even know they existed. Was this an option, or an aftermarket piece?

EDIT : Sorry, meant to post on Body and interior. Would one of you kind Moderators be so good as to move it there for me.

 

I'd say aftermarket. It looks like the one Classic Indrustries has for our cars. You don't happen to have any more pictures of that glove box do you?

 

No more pictures, but it opens out flat, with two cup holder shapes. Not absolutley sure I like it though.

 

thats funny lookin

 

aftermarket and I dont like it

 

dose anyone know where to get one! dose classic indrustries have them. thanks

 

Part #GB10 , at Classic Industries

 

thanks for the info .

 

doesnt look too too bad like the ones they had in the first gen camaros

 

Hmmm.. I would like to see more pics before I can really give an opinion

 

I dont like how it sticks out so much, really messes with the dash lines.

 

It's too large, maybe it the glove box was about as big as our console box...I'd like it.

 

Hi Paul,

irocfan has one in his Z28 too. Very rare, but also very cheap and badly made...... I'm happier with just the centre box. The Corvette C4 had them similar to that IIRC.

Cheers,
Felix

 

Sports cars need no gloveboxes or cupholders.

 

Sports cars only have 2 seats, like vettes,vipers, cobras, and shelby mustangs, camaros are sedans. That's why it was originally called the trans-am sedan series.

 

That is the one in IROCFAN's car!

 

I thought sedans had 4 doors

 

Sedan = 4 door
Coupe = 2 door 4 or 5 seats.
Roadster = 2 door, 2 seat.
Ford = Crap
Sportster = Anything fast.

I do not like those glove boxes.

It screams "This is where I keep my revolver" which really isnt a bad thing.. but it doesnt fit.

Everyone knows you keep your handgun under the seat anyways.

 

I dont think they are rare if you can buy them at classic industries.Maybe he meant rare to see in a camaro.I thought they mounted in the dash some(have to cut)but I see they just sit on the outside.takes away that roomy feeling when sitting on the passenger side,I think.

 

Really? Doesn't show up on Classics website, looking around.

Here's the article I used to have posted here on TGO....Apparently it was lost at some point.

holy hell, this thread is old, and yeah that glove box just doesnt look right

 

I feel like a freaking Newbie, resurrecting a 6 yr old thread!

I looked around trying to see WHY I was in a 6yr old thread to begin with, since I hadn't been doing a today.

In my defense, here is how I ended up in that 6yr old thread, so don't blame it on me for resurrecting it!

Link to a post from TODAY that led me to it.....

 

HA HA!

 

Quick semi-correction, and only because it was something I learned about recently. While these days we take for granted sedan = 4 doors, its not entirely true. Sedan, with some older cars, meant the car had a frame around the door glass, as opposed to the frameless windows you see on third gens. Some vehicles were available as 2-dr sedans. So yes, you are right by today's standards, but thought I'd share a little interesting tidbit.

 

i actually have one that i found on ebay. yeah it takes up a little bit of room but its def well worth it in my opinion. cause in my curent car i use the gloce box and center council alot. now the question is anyone know where to find or put a cup holder lol

 

I think there is a tech article about installing cup holders

EDIT: https://www.thirdgen.org/cupholder

 

tbh i don't like the look of it at all :x. Just doesn't look like its supposed to be there ye no?

 

Much 2010 post!

This is why Camaros don't have glove boxes...they aren't cool!

 

this guy gets it

 

every time you necropost God kills a kitten

 

Damn that kat killer.
