Ha ha! I can assure you it now opens. Could have been better with longer runners if you could fit them in.

so what mods did you have to do (to the runners, fridge or top shelf) and can you keep the thermo cover on it as well ?

it looks like the end of the fridge is still under the top shelf. I am only being nosey as I was about to copy your plan pretty much identically and want to know of any pitfalls before I start it.

thanks in advance

I cut the top shelf a tad, about 15mm. Fits with cover and all. Just going to fit foam to rear door to hold it all a bit tighter in there. Cheers

Can I ask if you have attached the shelves to the floor or the luggage barrier?
I ask because I'm going to demolish an unwanted cupboard next week and use the timber to make shelves similar to yours while I'm on holiday and I've been debating if I need to fix them in place.

It's all just sitting on the floor, and held by the two anchor bolts. Big washers etc. oh and it's also screwed into steel just below the rhs window.

It's not tested off road or anything yet, but it wouldn't be hard to screw through the barrier from behind the seats into the timber. PVA glue is incredibly good stuff.

Yeah, I was thinking of just clamping the back of it to the bottom of the luggage barrier.
