Hey, Does anyone know the exact dimensions of the boot? I really want to build a wooden shelf to put on top of the spare tire and battery so it is perfectly flat.
If anyone has built one please post pics and dimensions of it.
THanks in advance.

i put a bootboard in mine, its not the prettiest thing ever, it was sort of trial and error in fitting it in. it just sits on the spare tyre and super-safe mini jack. this also covers up the battery (which is under a cover anyway) jumper cables and for some reason a can of spray on aeroguard. you need to put a hinge in it somehwere that makes it shorter so you can get it out easily. i used masonite cos its light and we had some lying around

Cookie 720 -when we made the boot board for Dylans Clubby, all we did was copy the shape of the black carpet that was already in the boot, then cut it to size with a jig-saw. Then did the same with some carpet to improve the looks - plus some bits of carpet in the boot lid, just to pretty it all up a bit. Mind you, it looks pretty ammateurish compared to the picture that Hanra has put in :oops: However, it does the job. We did the same to Ribena too...here's a pic

Hooroo
