    ^ Now that would be cool - sign me up! Only problem is that it would block my rear seat cupholder, but then again you could put recesses in the box like Sue did.

    All great ideas and all do-able.

    I will get started on some mockups as time permits.

    The following is going to be incorporated in my design.

    Height (optional, depending on needs):
    1)Same height as back seat bottoms (where your butt sits)
    2)Flush-ish with the floor (for no seats)

    Depth: (from front to back)
    -as deep as the driver seat all the way back and moderately reclined.
    --The passenger box will be the same size, but will have more of a gap if you installed seat extenders.

    storage:
    2 boxes with hinge lids
    boxes will open outward (ie: the driver side box will open so you can access from the driver door and vice versa for the passenger side)
    1 box will consume the passenger side well. The other will consume the driver side as well as the middle. The middle portion will contain nothing but cup holders. probably 2. Hopefully I can find some sizing rubber or something so you can put most sized cups in there.

    Cut outs:
    There will be a cut out gap in the middle so that the arm rest can open sufficiently.

    Anyone have any other thoughts?

    I was thinking along those lines with a cupholder built in, and possibly removeable panels that would allow the seats to recline if needed. I had considered making one myself, but never really got to it. Jamas seems to be much better with carpentry anyway
