Mine arrived today and I started fitting it to my 2021 GC680.
Product quality is great, as with all their products, and the instructions are comprehensive. I definitely recommend reading them through before starting.

Assembly is fiddly but straightforward and they provide decent quality ‘throwaway’ tools but I used my own.

Here’s where it became a real pain in the arse - I could not get the drawer into the rails, and when I managed it would not close fully. It was like something was jamming it.

Bear in mind I’m a very experienced amateur car builder but with dodgy eyesight so I do lots of this stuff by feel And something felt misaligned. I took the slides of lf multiple times and followed the instructions to the letter before spotting the problem.

In step 3 when you test fit to see what spacers are needed double check if you need them the full length as mine was a perfect fit at the step but needed 3mm at the rear as the fixed rail is not parallel.

So nothing at the front (at the step), 1.5mm in the middle and 3mm at the rear (nearest the door) and it all worked perfectly.

As ever, quality counts, and quality costs, but for me it’s going to make life much easier and reduce the chances of me hurting my middle-aged back leaning in awkwardly to reach stuff.

5 stars for the drawer.
