Defender Crew Cab rear seat fridge mount

[benlittle]

This could also be an idea, placing two front seats and keeping the fridge in the middle where it could have a bit more space between the two front seats and still placed on a console for a large compressor.

I'm pretty sure I'd hate this setup. Having to climb in and out, over a seat, every time I want something out of the fridge.

my setup is modular. I added additional brackets to the originals, so I can switch between a full 60/40 with fridge in rear, or 2x 40's with fridge between, or just 60 with fridge by left side passenger door. this setup is superior for road trips and acess while moving (in flight), and once camped, the fridge can be moved for convenient access.

Here you go. what I did here was dremel out all the fixed pins on the lower seat legs that were part of the permanent brackets, and then installed upper and lower leg quick release pins on all seats. you can see here on RHS, I added a 40 seat where the 60 bench was. the original 60 bench leg bracket is unused in middle, but avail if I want to swap out the 40 for the 60. My 60 bench is now also quick release installed as a forward facing 3rd row with 3 point belts (perfect fit btw) to allow child seating. it is actually very comfortable for adults too.

alright. I have to finish something up on it as it's only 80% complete. I'll shows some pictures of it tomorrow. I should just do a buildup thread, as this is a total hijack of this thread!

Here are pics of the 3rd row project. still have some finishing touches.

I used trailer leaf spring brackets to floor mount the bench legs, so they cam quick release as well as fully fold forward for cargo.
