    When doing this work I was surprised you had to pull all the trim out and the lack of storage bins - most modern landies I have had, have plenty of storage in the back.

    While I had to pull the trim out on the passenger side, on the drivers side there is a little access door - looking in there there doesn't seem to be any thing special in there - so what is this access hatch for - there is enough room inside to store stuff but unfortunately you would run the risk of damaging the outer skin as it is all single skin inside.

    Likewise in the cubby under the floor - most of this is wasted space - has any body pulled the foam out that hold the jack etc and redone it with something else to store stuff. I am looking at storing the tyre brace (putting a hydraulic jack in the engine bay somewhere), small tool box, towbar tongue and ball etc in here. If you have done this what did you use to hold everything in place instead of the moulded foam in there at the moment.

    Cheers

    Garry,
    Have a look under the rear seats as they fold forward with the little pull tabs, there i a reasonable amount of space under these & very easy access.
    Also the board (towards the front of the vehicle)behind the rear seats comes away, it is just held in place by some plastic "scrivets".
    Again some more access to be gained & if handy cound hinge the board on something or make access from under the rear seats, although a little awkward.
    The little hatch on the drivers side was for the RSE (Rear Seat Entertainment) so you can load the DVD player which gets mounted just below the hatch.
    If this option is fitted then there is some more bracketry that bolts up & hold the player.

    Cheers

    Thanks Pete, hadn't even considered under the rear seats. I will have a closer look.

    Cheers

    I had a look under the seats - good spot for things like a recovery strap and associated gear - or maybe a flat toolbox. They are not as shallow as they look.

    I suppose the cubby box in the back is what is left from the 3rd row seat well in the D3/D4.

    Cheers
