i was wondering if you guys would give me a vote on a water starage unit incorpirated with your rear draw set up , just a yes I would want one , or a no I wouldnt would be great .
And if you read this Rosco , would a wold down section infront of the _Affordable_Storage_Drawers.aspx suit your need for a table ? just playing with some ideas .
Started the first proto type today , looking good , still to heavy , i am sitting on the 20 kg range , I need it to get down to 12 or 15 complete .

I constructed a steel frame that bolts to the rear
seat mount on a 3l patrol.
This frame has a lightweight square section just behind the rear passenger seats.
The box section serves two purposes, firstly to secure 4 x 10 litre water containers and secondly to secure my drawer system.
The water container height is the same as my drawer system, this provides a level height troughout the rear section.
I have photos etc if you want any further info

Personally I'd pass up on sacrificing drawer space for water storage, but that's probably got more to do with the shape of my truck and the adequate storage capacity which remains.
My drawer is completely full as it is with tools, spares and recovery gear and at this stage that's how I intend it to stay. I could probably slip in 6-8 tea bags but that's about it.
Regarding the table aspect, any setup would suffice ... as long as it was big enough to be useable area, certainly no smaller than the area of a drop down tailgate for example.
