over priced piece of plastic?

[meathead333]

i am sure some of you have seen this. it sounded like good idea untill i saw the price. i suppose it is a custom made, limited production peice.

Those are made by a member here. Make your own and tell us how much you spent. If you come up with something better we would love to see it. Then we can sent you our money. ;D

It also comes with a water tight cover to protect whatever you put in there...

I like it, but that would mean taking away my source of cool air (cheap man's air conditioning).

I replaced mine with a water proof cover years ago.
Sheet metal, a few rivits and some silicone.
Total cost less than 2 bucks.

I agree, that another thing I like about the Bronco. The vent works very well on those hot days.

Wal-mart has a whole aisle dedicated to Rubbermaid and other plastic containers. I am sure you could get one to fit. ;D Cheaply.

$49.00 seems steep to me.

i just received one for a customers truck i'm building. it's a nicely made part. it's quality. for those that can't or don't want to fabricate something of their own design, it's a no brainer.
you'd have a couple of hours into making something what is your time worth?
the part was Todd Z's creation. i give him 2 thumbs up on it.
sure you will loose the poor man's a/c, but if you don't use it or have a/c it's no big deal.
i'm a believer in supporting list memebrs too
just my .02

Does anyone know if that thing comes in other colors, or how easily it could be painted? Looks befrect for a rig that more offroad oriented, just an extra place thats already there now serves as a small tool storage box. Thanks for the info guys

the site says the black is the actual color...i think blue was the test color or something

I imagine that one is blue because that is todd's blue bronco its mounted in. I will have one the day I get the 1K to get AC in my Bronco. Its on the list of things to definately do.

That's Todd's Bronco?
I thought it was Keith's Bronco...

OK, I think I understand now. Keith's is the bright blue one.
Todd's is the one with the rocker guards too.

That is a pretty good idea. If you take the doors off or have a fiberglass hood that blocks it anyways then you are good to go. I am going to have to add that to my list of things I need/want.
