$750 + $95 s&h ! :eek:

Just a little over priced! :giggling:

Wait for a while, you will be able to get them for half that price! :D

Kind of pricey* I wonder what Amstar's rear box and drawers will cost.

The drawer idea is pretty good.

When the back seat is folded down is it pretty flat?

*Again they think all Hummer owners are either very rich or stupid or both.

I have thought of making a shelf in the back w/o drawers where tool boxes and stuff could go under and ice chest and camping gear on top. You could anchor teh shelf or box to the tie downs.

I made my rear sleeping prototype platform with 1"x12" pine and spent $30 bucks on some carpet and padding.

I took a few pics on an old "film" camera. I'll get it developed and burn CD.

PM me and I'll email you pics next week.

The platform works pretty good.

I can think of better things to spend almost 1k on.:eek: You could make one yourself of better quality for under 100 bucks. I believe that company uses carpet covered particle board, not even solid wood or metal.:mad:

If you made one yourself couldnt you make it to the height of the back seats folded and have a relatively flat floor.

You could do whatever you wanted...basically your only limited by available local stock hardware. Then again, you could probably find anything you wanted on the www:excited:

That price is beyond being a RIP OFF...

In any major METRO area find a cabinet maker and you can have it done at 1/3 the price, or less, maybe a little more if you want drawers, etc etc (wood , plywood, formica over plywood, or...)

Heck 3/8 or 1/2 AC plywood, a saw, a drill, good glue... Flip up hinge the back piece, lay in 2 or 3 plywood drawers (the seperaters would give support to the top {supporting the middle}),

An EASY weekend project.

Used a steel storage shelve jacked from moms garage. Think is was 2'x4' shelve grey steel :beerchug: Fit perfect with 4 spacers and some stainless self tapping screws to the sides. Sitting atop two plastic storage bins about 5" high. Modular and no wasted space when in...:clapping:
Similar effect, far more cost effective.:fdance:

I've been wanting to get something like that for mine too but thats way to pricey. With the way the seats DON'T lay flat, I can only get one dog cage in there. If I had something like that I could get 2 of my bomb dogs in my H3. I hate the fact that my wife can carry more in her Exploder than I can in my 3.:mad:

That works super low cost.:clapping:

I like the covered wood idea the best with 2 or 3 draws,maybe a flap on the inside behind rear seat to extend it some when seats are folded so a air bed could be used or if you need a long flat floor.
