Currently the inset bin is just there to show conceptually what frunk might be. Can’t rely on that currently to make a guess. Mainly there to make it look clean for demos and show a decent idea of what SM intends

I should have specified that I was referring to the plastic panel on @SpaceEVDriver Lightning, not the Scout.

He was trying to fit a fridge in the frunk of the Lightning and I had that idea as I looked at his pictures. It probably wouldn't give enough clearance though.

I think he means from @SpaceEVDriver Lightning frunk to fit his fridge.

We must have been posting at the same time

Removing the plastic inner panel on the underside of the frunk lid wouldn't give you enough clearance, would it? How thick is that plastic panel?

Less than an inch, it appears. Certainly not enough.

Yeah-gotcha. I wasn’t thinking either. Makes sense

This is the sort of solution—other than a custom one—that would be great. Too bad National Luna is based in South Africa. The 60L is a bit too wide, but it might be workable in some way.

Looks like they have quite a few places in NA that sell them. Two in Arizona.

I couldn’t find the drawer fridge version at those resellers. I might not have looked hard enough. I’ll double-check.

None of them stated they were a full line dealer. So maybe not.

The way I want to do it—because I’m a glutton for new projects even though I have upity billion to complete already—is build a custom refrigerated box that drops into the frunk. I have an old fridge compressor from an old fridge that could do the job. Would need to muck with the controller board to make it work again.

I saw a video earlier this year where the modified a honda civic trunk into an insulated cooler and installed a kegerator with the tap on top of the trunk. Wasn’t top level fit and finish but was funny to watch and worked quite nicely when it was completed
