Chubby Box Lid
Looking to get a thicker cubby box lid which matches the XS half leather trim. Where is best for OEM style and raised height?

I got mine from Exmoor Trim but I don't think they do the lids alone any more? It was ยฃ38

I don't have a picture unfortunately but do have a video

Looks good! Gas strut is a neat touch. I have seen the ones that are half leather with the white stitching but canโ€™t seem to find it now

OEM Developments do a padded cubby lid, but I believe out of stock at the moment. James

When I did it some years ago, I just had a measure up and bought one from ebay. The bottom mount in the box can go anywhere almost, so you have plenty of margin for error.

If you have some trim, it's dead easy to make one yourself with a couple of inches of closed cell foam

As above you can make your own with whatever you like, but getting all the bits together can be a bit time consuming then there is having the time spare to do it.
These days with online delivery, it can take a while just to get the items to do a single job. $W33T $0U7H3RN $UG4R
