We made our own boot box from a couple of strips of aluminium and some thin plywood covered with carpet. It makes use of the maximum amount of space in the rear of the Indy and can hold quite a lot. Best of all, it can be easily removed with just four screws.

Have a look here for details.

here's mine - 6mm ply, covered with 3mm foam, then black vinyl. Hinged section opens for access to fuel filler diff area etc (no boot box) and has a panel lock although it's really only to keep the lid closed. Rescued attachment P1060356.JPG
