    Stash Box Cover Wanted

    Don't know the proper term for this little compartment but I need a cover if anyone has a spare in their parts pile.

    I kinda remember seeing a cover, I think? But, I cannot remember when or on what van? Interesting tiny little screws.

          I, like others, have used this hole to mount a 3 point retractable seat belt on that sheet metal above the hole. The hole allows access to the mounting nut on my install. Unfortunately on the driver’s side I had to make a hole. I’m planning to install a plate/cover like that passenger side to cover the hole I made.

            IIRC, Sportvans had the cover. All my panel vans do not have the cover

                Huh. I was planning to mount the belt spool to the floor. I want to use the area above the triangle hole for a custom panel with speaker.

                  OK, I'll take it! LOL

                  My 108 had one as well. If I knew my 66 didn't have one under the upholstery panel I would have kept the one from the 108 before I sold it, let the new guy make a replacement!

                    Well, that makes sense. I always thought it was a poor place to hide weed - like what cop wouldn't look there first!

                      That's funny - does the access hole have the pre-drilled screw holes? My 108 didn't have any original interior panel so not sure if it would have covered the access hole cover.

                      Well, guess I'll just grab a piece of sheet metal at Home Depot and cut my own, or remake an upholstery panel with a speaker hole.
