Went to install a rear cab light, still haven't installed the light, but ended up with this instead. The lid has warped, will be fixed soon.

Gives everything a nice tidy spot, and still allows access to the jack/storage area. A negative for some people would be that this completely uses up the boot, but for myself I found the boot so fucking uselessly small that most stuff gets put on the rear seats or in the passenger footwell anyway, so this just means that now the boot can store some useful stuff.

Nice work!

It might be worthwhile fitting some mechanical latches to the lid section instead of the magnetic latches.
id hate to have that metal toolbox enter the cabin in a rollover.

Looks great tho

Very nice...
Agree with Pezz about the latches on the top section, the table part is fine, just need to lock the top.

Good to see someone else having a go at storage with the seats still in place, good job... :)

Yeah sounds like an idea, didn't really consider going upside down in my latch choice but that's a very good point.

Cheers for the feedback guys :)
