Hodge's new 4.2

[Hodge]

So I went about carpetting and modifying the rear draws / fridge system that I got from Mudski. In the end I ended up tapering the front upper area to suit the tapered patrol's rear draws. I carpetted the whole lot , and in the end removed the draw and little slide out table (which i can add back on at any time). I like it the way it is. Not a fan of the draw.

For a non carpetter and non carpenter I'm impressed how it all turned out.

Looks great lol
Dont need a vent hole at the back of the fridge cavity, gunna get hot in there

There is a hole with a fan I am yet to cut the carpet out for that. The fan will be wired with the compressor maybe so when it is running it'll kick in.

Nice patrol mate

Fitted the rear unit in the car. Very very happy !!



Extension bracket added for the child seat. And cargo barrier brackets will use the same bolt holding the unit down.



Now just to take out the rear belts and figure out how to best utilize the bolts area previously used for the seats. Might make a plate or something and just cover it.

Very nice....

Someone here maybe Threedogs, has a plate to put over where the seats use to be.

Yes I have cover plates Eric any colour you want.
you can then bolt on old tie down points , well thats what ive done
comes in handy tying gear down
Plus just poke the belts back down that top slot

this may be handy too

Thanks John. I knew someone had them a while ago... I'll grab a set. SMS-ed ya.

Wow looking good mate!
Those plates from John is what your after... as for the seat belts. Easiest thing to do is remove the belt guide in the trim, and tuck the entire belt in behind the panel and clip the trim back on.
