Waeco fridge centre console

[Silveredition]

G'day guys, as a bit of a follow-up to my 'Toyota Corolla seats into a 60' thread, today I received my Waeco CDF-11 fridge. I made up a bracket to mount it before it arrived, so today I stuck some sticky-backed heavy duty Velcro to the underside of the fridge, and chucked it in.... The position and height is perfect, and to me it looks like it is designed to be there.... I will, with time, modify the mount (now for the third time) as it could be a bit shorter, and as the fridge is offset due to the park brake, I might make some additional storage to suit...

And another...

and from the rear...

That's awesome. I agree that it looks like it was designed to be there. OEM front rubber mat is equally nice.

Looks like the same fridge is sold on our side of the world.

Do you have any shots of your mounting bracket?

Nice fit! I'd do something about the color...

Awsome vinyl floor, what mats are those?

 

[Silveredition]

Thanks guys, the Oem floor vinyl came from the wreckers ($50 for the whole car) as when I bought the car it didn't have any flooring in it at all.... The vinyl has household 'airocell' insulation under it for sound and heat proofing...
The colour of the fridge will have to stay as it is....
The floor mats are 'vital road' mats - cheap I think...
I don't have any good shots of the mount - it is 1.2mm mild steel sheet, covered in marine carpet....
I also have a 57l Engel Combi fridge / freezer that goes in the rear cargo area....

Any chance you could get your hands on that vinyl flooring again?

@tclark - the local wreckers that I use for almost all of my parts gets a new 60 in every month or so, so it would just depend on what flooring it had in it. Mine is quite worn under the feet position (on the drivers side), but I dont notice it with rubber mats. I keep looking for grey flooring to match the rest of the car (probably would even prefer grey carpet once I fix a leak into the front passenger footwell.....)
I can keep a look out, but dont think it would be practical with the cost of shipping!

Yeah you're probably right, just wishful thinking. I remember seeing those for sale new at one point and now I kick myself for not biting the bullet and buying it!
