    I didn't make the whole section to slide out for access because once slide all the way out would make storage access to difficult due to the length of floor hanging out the rear.
    All mounted to the factory fittings , it sits about 40mm higher the the seats when folded down.
    Tools , recovery gear and spares go under the rear floor.

    Second row seat location has a false floor mounted to make a flat mounting platform where second battery, oven and fridge are mounted.

    Battery sits on the drivers side, bolted down to the the false floor with a frame over the top of it and the oven mounted to the frame work.
    Fridge sits sideways on the passenger side with easy access via the passengers rear door.

    All works a treat and having the battery and fridge in the center of the car brings some weight forward as the rear is already very heavy once the van is hooked up
    Without a photo it's just a myth!!

    Just an FYI. You can program the bottom button on the remote to open the tailgate, but you need a working tailgate switch to do that.

    What I did was pull the switch out and cut the wires off at the switch to leave as much length as possible to join. I then shorted the wires to unlock the tailgate and used that to program the bottom button on the remote. That got me working until the replacement switch arrived. I could find no other way of changing the program on the the bottom button as I usually have it programmed for EAS use.
