Hi,
Just did a quick and cheap accessory mod for my topbox.
I went to Halfords or any decent car accessory shop, and bought the cheapest plastic cupholder for £2.99.
I cut the long extended plastic piece off which is for going down beside a car door and window.
I placed the cupholder in the bottom right of my topbox and while holding it with one hand I drilled 4 small holes through the cupholder into the bottom of my topbox, that way the rain cant get in.
I then got two cable ties and pushed them through from the bottom and round the holder and back through my topbox again and sliced off the excess lengths of cable ties.
Here are the pics of what I did.
it is great when you want to hold cans or bottles which have been opened in your topbox in an upright position and stops them rattling about.
