Hi all
What I am looking for would be similar to an overhead console (type with the 50mm lip or thereabouts) but running along both sides of the interior of the troopy just above the sliding windows. I have an overhead console in the front of the vehicle and this gave me the idea. It would be used for storage of light gear which I can access when I'm in the back of the vehicle or even for my fishing rods etc. I have drawers in the back but as I soon head off for 3 months looking for ideas. It's no biggy if can't be achieved but thought I'd ask. NO I am not a handyman!
Thanks
Arlo

Hi Arlo,

I know you said you are not a handyman, but you might be able to find someone to make something up for you. We have "overhead lockers" made from shadecloth, bungee cord and curtainwire. Its been there for numerous big trips and is great for storing small things, and as we sleep in the back its where our books, glasses etc go at night. Have a look at the photo in this blog here

Cheers,

Val

Hi Arlo,
You don't say where you are, but if you contact "the dept of the interior" at Carlton in Sydney [Google it] they will be able to solve your dillema.
They put a consul in my 2012 Ford Ranger PX LXT.
