Just talked to a mate that can get me heaps of 16mm water resistant ply for free. So going to start the rear draws this week. Going to incorporate all electrics, compressor etc into it.
Anything I should look out for or any hints or tips? It's for a GU 2013 wagon
Cheers
Tony

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever. WARNING: Towballs used for recoveries can, and do kill people and damage property.

Side mount
16mm is a lot of dead weight.
Cannot pick up 12mm..
Your spanning 600mm, so you could easily hold a party on 12mm
Decided on 800mm long. I looked at the 12mm but seems flimsy. Also getting the ply for free, so it's a deal breaker :)
Going to make a few and see which one I like the most. I pinched Cnut idea with the power panel and design.
12mm is plenty thick enough. I would build with 12mm and use a 15mm top and drawer bottoms only.
I like the electric panel. Who's build is that from? Make sure you set it back far enough that you can plug stuff in and still close the door or you will smash stuff in the first day
Line the inside of the drawers with carpet will help keep the load quiet.

I have "Outback" drawers and part of the install instructions include drilling out one anchor nut and fitting a bolt, plates and washers. Its an ADR thing.
