Will these drawers fit in an RRS?

[Aussie Jeepster]

I've decided I'm going to replace my dead D3 with a RRS.
I'm wondering if someone who actually has one can tell me if these drawers will fit in the back of an RRS????
If they will fit I'll try to remove them from my old D3, if they won't, then I will not bother. Getting the drawers out with a jammed tailgate is going to be a major job so I'm wondering if I will bother wasting my time.
I'm sure the width and height are ok, its the 900mm length that I'm not sure about.
Many thanks

Not without cutting them down which may make them unusable.

Thank you - that is what I suspected.
I still need to visit the car to remove more stuff, including what is actually in the drawer unit that I have (had!).
I will hack my way into the unit to get my gear out and not worry about reusing it.
I'm guessing that my trusty Engel 700 long and 400 high will fit ok?
And then I'll make up a single drawer unit to go next to the Engel.
At least it gives me something to dream about while I wait for the claim to be finalised and while I keep looking around.
Why are all the good cars black???????? I want any color, but not black!!!!!!!!

The length of the cargo area in the RRS is a tad shorter than a D3/D4 but the main issue is the shape of the rear (5th door) - the D3/D4 has a near vertical rear where the RRS is steeply sloping from about half way up so high items eg a large fridge may result in not being able to close the rear door. I have 65 litre fridge that does fit with careful management - eg fitting sideways. I doubt a larger fridge would fit and certainly not on draws.

Now if the is no need to use the back seats then plenty of room with them folded down - with them down I can fit my self inflating mattress in and can sleep fully stretched out - I am 178cm.

I went over to Triumph Rover Spares today and had a look at some RRS. The Engel will fit fine, but the drawers might be a push. If I can get them out of the D3 tomorrow in one piece, I'll hang onto them and see if they fit, but getting them out of the vehicle might render them unusable. Will see what happens.
I slept in the D3 and I'm guessing the RRs will just be a tad shorter - will cross that bridge when I get the car I want.
Thanks

Thank you so much - that has really got me thinking about what I want to do.
Are the panels on the right side secured, or do they just sit there - or have you done a good job hiding the screws!

so i initially designed it so the floor was in 2 parts, and the right panel could easily be unlatched and removed to access underneath, but i decided i didnt really need that, as it just complicates things a bit more, and you can still access everything under there through the access hole under the fridge, you just put the things you need less there. so currently its just screwed down with counter sunk metal screws, but if i did it again, id do it all out of one bit of ply.
