Phase 1 of the cubby mount has been completed. I had to massage the bottom of the cubby and ended up taking a tad too much off the bottom, but I still think it looks amazing. Fitment around the sides are completely snug.

Now I need to move on to phase 2 which is making the fiberglass mount for my Tinker Electronics. That's happening today hopefully. Also, the B side of my mount should snug up the bottom middle section of the fiberglass cubby mount.

Phase 3 will be purely aesthetics. I'll add carbon fiber to the face, prime the cubby and then paint it. I'll keep you guys looped in.

I've had a few people inquire about getting a cubby so I'll just address that below if you're serious. Best place to reach me is on Instagram@gbrettin because that's a public profile.

What does it fit in?
-- 370z only.

What is it used for?
-- After market gauges or anything your heart desires.

What are the face dimensions?
-- 5" x 7". Actually slightly larger but you'll have 3/8" wiggle room.

How much?
-- $599.

Why so much?
-- It took forever to make the mold and the materials were not cheap. I will likely make a 3D printed version which will be much cheaper in the future, but that's not where I am at now. There's also no guarantee I will get around to that either, so don't bank on it.

What is the lead time?
-- 3mo approximately. I do it in my free time and have a day job.

How long do you plan on making these?
-- Not sure. Might be a one off if no one is interested.

If you're still interested then PM me on IG@gbrettin for further discussion.
