Hi,

The '08 glovebox won't fit your '11.  They moved some relays to where the glovebox was and changed the brackets on the '10's and '11's.  The glove box on my '08 get awfully hot anyway.

How about a powered tank bag?   Check these guys out:

Not totally correct. The glovebox will fit if you have the mounting bracket from the 08/09 and then there's some other modifications that will need to be done to the box. There's a write up on how to do this somewhere. If I locate it, I'll add the link.

Anyway, I'm looking for one myself.  :D

Just to clarify: you can switch them as long as you have the correct mounting bracket?  I have an 09 and don't really care for the glovebox.

There's a little more involved. Look at the link I posted earlier. And this is only for the stuff that's mounted on top of the tank (glovebox 08/09 and tank bag mount 2010-2012). The 2010-12 box that's on the left side doesn't fit (that I know of) on an 08/09.
