Fridge for front of vehicle

[David.gamble]

Any recommendations for a small fridge that will fit where my cubby box is between the two front seats in my 1991 200tdi Land rover defender 90?

During a recent trip to Botswana saw someone who had a nice looking one but forgot the make

I have an earlier version of this one - not sure the dimensions you need but this has cup holders and a front opening aspect. Works very well

Dometic makes one that's meant to slide into the center console on Ford trucks and Expeditions:


It wouldn't take much to enclose wrap that with enough shell to put it into any vehicle - it's a nice form factor compared to the skinny chest fridges since it isn't very long.

Nice one guys. Hadn't heard of that brand. I like the idea of the ford one as there might be enough room to out a small cubby in front of it

Look ideal. How did you secure it down?

Engle sells a mount for that model, so I used that mount bolted to 1/2 wood plate with legs and angles bolted into existing holes that were used to fasten the original consol. I spent $12 on a cheap cup holder to take up the space between fridge & shifter box. It could look better running the aluminum plate all the way to the box, then fabbing up a catch all and some cup holders, for in between, however, my aluminum skills are lacking.
