exosteve · 18-04-2013, 20:15

When you tip the rear seats forward there are two small compartments either side of the trolly jack suitable for a good size first aid kit and a few essentials.

That is excellent, well done, no good for me as carry shed loads of stuff and would have to unload it all to get to stuff under, but absolutely great idea, Rick

notice how shinny the spanners are

I cant fix cars so I wont need to get at any of these tools very often.
But its very handy to have it all with you.
all my important stuff will be in the side storage compartments

very nice

Fez_uk · 18-04-2013, 20:46

Very nice and does not take up any room in the boot for shopping.

Mine is a right mess!

You have clearly made the decision to make your 7 seater into a five seater, which looking at the way you have done it, you have made it possible to revert back to the original layout, assuming you have kept all the old bits...

You are right regarding storage in the Terrano/Maverick there is a shortage, where to put the jump leads, tow rope spade, basic tools etc.

I actually like what you have done as you have created a flat floor more suitable for the carriage of items rather than have them falling over.
The layout lends it's self to having Thunderbird 2 type pods, which could have different items in for different tasks.

I would consider some form of locking the covers down to ensure that things aren't flying around under the worst circumstances.

For the last 6 months, my third row of seats has been out of the car, I only put them in last night prior to the MOT, oh did I say that it passed today without any advisories .

So do I really need them in the car?

best regards,

Rustic

Great job, if ever I can get rid of the dog vrate I'd like something like that but alas the need for a dog crate will out live the car.

stinka · 18-04-2013, 21:14

My 3rd row gets taken out in the week as I put my tools in for work, but usually go back in on sat morning when we go out as a family and one of the kids brings a mate

Bloody pain in the arse job it is
