Yes, to be specific it's the cruise control part of it, as I haven't done this version before.

Finally getting round to putting the sliding floor/drawer into the caddy... Had these runners laying from my Peugeot traveller and just not had time. All fastened down with M8 rivnuts. Now just to save money for the ply wood to make the actual thing ImageImageImage

Ha ha I wonder if they were intentionally taking the mick, yep GOOD GO but not quite good enough….

I take it the fit wasn’t right?

The only genuine OEM item was the VW paper bubble wrap bags the grilles came in :lol:

One was not sitting 100%, and they felt a bit brittle.

@pman1984
I used those exact runners to build a drawer into my caddy.
You my find you struggle to get the rearmost screws through the runner, into your (tray, drawer, bed)..
Hopefully its close enough to tailgate you will have clearance. I had to mount mine onto a false floor, then slide the whole unit into the caddy and bolt to the floor, or I couldn't secure runners at the back...
