Has anyone mounted one of these? I'm curious about whether it mounts to the same holes as the older style glovebox... also, does it have the same issue where the brackets get bent out of shape and the door never quite fits right?

I really like the look of the latest model PX. Piaggio went back to the original curve of the horncast, but the subtle upgrades (fuel gauge, bigger glove box) make me slightly jealous.

It is not the same holes. You will have to drill new ones. I know this because I put an old-style P box on a Stella(PX) frame.

thanks!

I got the same rear bumper as on the 2011 (here) and the post holes are different too.

What to do with an old P. It's probably worth $1200, and if I spend $3k on it, it will be worth $2500.

I don't know anything about mounting one of those glove boxes.. sorry, but minus the mirrors that's a hellofa nice looking P! I didn't used to like those newer front hibs, but I like it on this one! I's swap the chrome accents for black, swap the lenses for tinted and love it long time.
