I would of paid $350 for this.....the thing is solid and fit is awesome. Install the shelf where you want it and go have it powder coated once you get it with a textured black.

Ok I have GREAT news and s***TY news.

The great news is that after way too many delays the #60Series #Glovebox have finally arrived at the shop just now.

The s***ty news is that I have knee surgery first thing in the morning so none of these won’t go out til maybe starting Monday. Even then it’s a maybe. I just don’t know how well I’ll be doing post surgery but these are here and I promise I’ll get them@out as fast as my good leg will let me 😳

Take care of yourself first!

Even from a business perspective, some time to recover is better than exacerbating the injury and losing a ton more time to needing a more intensive recovery.

I know I'm preaching to the choir, but just sayin'....

The wait for shipment is totally worth it. This is an awesome piece of kit.

Sounds like good news and good news.
With a new knee you will be inspired to get more shi** done.
Get well soon. Enjoy the physical therapy.

So honestly I'm kind of glad my OEM light didn't work with the Wits' End glove box, because it led me to find a much better solution than what was there before. LED light strips. They mount with some super sticky 3M butyl mounting tape (about 2mm thick so hopefully enough to adhere to the texture of the powder coating on my glove box, and I led the wires out and down and soldered them to the OEM connector that the original light used. Little wire wrap and she looks good. I only stuck the wire in place temporarily so I can be sure the strips will stay in place through the summer heat and winter cold, but if they stay put I'll run a thin bead of black polyurethane caulk over the wires to help conceal them a bit better. These are really bright and if you don't have the shelf, only one strip would be absolutely perfect for the glove box.

Do you have a link to the led light strips?

Do you have a link to the led light strips?

I'm amazed I was able to find them in my Amazon order history, but these are the ones I used. You can cut them to length, which is nice.

Got it. Ordered the same thing thanks!

Got mine today. I looked thru this entire thread and didn't see any picture of how folks used the holes on the bottom right. I saw references to Ram mounts and ECUs, but no pictures. The hole patterns are clearly intended for something specific. Anyone care to share pics of what they installed using those holes?

@NLXTACY how about responding to my numerous requests for a refund?

Paid $560 about three weeks ago and have had no contact or parts. I have been a customer for over 6 years and spent thousands, not anymore

dumb ass question - since you have an fj62 too - did you find it difficult to install it? mine met with this resistance on the right hand side, i just couldn't force it into place at all.
