Asking for the Org's help....to find something

[theskaz]

I need a black plastic container about the size of a deck of cards. This black container needs to have a latched lid on it.


I have been looking for hours every day looking for something that will work. This is directly related to my thread in the busa mods forum.

Traveling soap container? A tobacco store may have the container you are looking for

needs to be a tad deeper and plastic. but that is pretty close.

Thanks for the idea

Thats where I started looking first. I could not find anything that quite matched what I was looking for.I forgot to mention the lid needs to be hinged.

Just put your buds in something else and use that one ?




What's it for ?

I have no idea what you mean by that but anywho....

What I am going to do is take this plastic container and cut a hole in the inner front fairing (the one with the warning sticker) and push this box in. in the bottom of the box, I am going to have bulkhead connectors for USB VGA, powerlet and cig lighter recepticals. I think it will look cleaner and If im not using them, i can shut the lid.

Plastic an not metal, he is either afraid of rust or the metal detector in airports

Aussiekeeper turned me on to this store, and this is pretty much what I was looking for... wish the think was black and had a lid with a lower profile:

Looked at those and i cant have a screw lid. dont want to have to unscrew anything to plug in my monitor or periphreals.

 

[theskaz]

That is a viable option. lid is kinda tall but if nothing better pops up, this might be it.
