MUD Cubby-Box Locker Fitting Instructions
Useful Information
The fixings and fixing positions within the base plate and lid of the MUD Cubby-Box Locker
have been designed around the factory-fit Land Rover cubby-box. It would be impossible
to cater for every type of aftermarket cubby-box that has ever existed so when fitting an
aftermarket Cubby-Box to the MUD Cubby-Box locker you may be required to enlarge or drill
additional/alternative fixing holes within the base plate and/or lid to suit your cubby-box.
The factory-fit cubby-box in the Defender is fixed in place with bolts that go into Rivnuts
within the seat box base plate. It is very common, even on the newest cars for these
Rivnuts to come loose when trying to remove the cubby-box fixing bolts. If the fixing bolts
continue to turn and don’t unscrew, you will need another pair of hands to hold the Rivnuts
underneath the base plate with a pair of grips. Either replace the Rivnuts or remove the
Rivnut and replace with M6 nuts on the underside of the base plate.
Removing the cubby-box from your vehicle
There are a total of four fixings that secure the factory cubby-box into the centre
baseplate. The two front fixings can be located beneath the plastic cup-holder insert. The
two rear fixings can be located underneath the two plastic caps within the inside of the
cubby-box. Depending on the age of the car these fixings will be either 10mm or a T27 Torx
headed fastener.
