I then covered it with sticky backed felt,suede in black

I cut the insert about 2mm smaller than the hole as to make it a snug fit with the felt/suede covering on.

Finished item!

Following my post RE: center dash top box http://www.outlawjapclub.co.uk/forum/sho...php?t=9750
the guy who sold it to me couldnt find the missing part that filled the hole in the front, and it looked fecking awful fitted.

So today i set about making my own.

First thing i did was make a template using blue low tack masking tape, which i transferred to a plastic box i had kicking about the garage and cut it out.

Hole where part is missing
