Storage Shelf in Jeep TJ

I pulled my rear seat out of my 2005 Jeep Wrangler Sport as i wanted more storage space, and decided to build a shelf that helped organize the storage. I took the general idea for the shelf from this guy http://theroadchoseme.com/jeep-tj-storage-box . I knew i wanted it completely contained so it could serve as a lock box when i had the top off. I think next up i'll add some power door locks so i can quickly lock the rear hatch. I didn't see too many pictures when i was looking so i figured i'd add some.

Shelf is 3/4" sanded plywood from Lowe's that i painted with some black latex house paint. It's covered in Auto Custom Carperts 827 gray which was the best match i could find from ACC for the 2005 Khaki interior.

I built the brackets out of 1/8"x 1" wide aluminum strap from lowes. I just bent it in a vice and drilled holes. This allows me to disassemble and reassemble the shelf without worry about ruining the wood with wood screws.

I added some stretch netting to secure my first aid kit and an E-tool

I added more stretch net pockets and a cup holder a little higher than the stock one. I had the original one blocked off cause i ran an ARB fridge wiring kit through there to plug in my fridge. The other one is USB outlets in an ARB housing which i had leftover from wiring my truck for the fridge.
