We did exactly that on our Global Expedition. Took out the 40 of the 60/40 back seat. Made a base and mounted the Engel back there. The base became a storage area and location for the safe. I could reach back there when co driver was driving and grab a cold water when outside was 120 degrees...

This ones mine back in 01 outside Aspen

We never used drawers on our expeditions. I put in a flat floor (piece of plywood) between the wheel well of the Defender then underneath we had Zarges boxes that fit perfectly. It meant that I could pull out a box with all the cooking gear etc take out what I needed and use the box to sit on...

Check this out - I talked to the Guys at Bundu a couple of years ago about stitching these into the seams of a Howling Moon tent. Run off a small Battery or Solar Panel. This would be enough to light the interior to see at night. You'd need something else to read by I suspect...

I agree with Shogun, I've used the Sleep System from Wiggys for getting on 15 years. It the only one that sets realistic temperature ratings. The Summer bag is great - used it over the weekend at Expo and add it to the winter bag and you get an Arctic rated bag. Insane! What are you waiting for...
