Re: STORAGE BOX FOR H3
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.

Re: STORAGE BOX FOR H3
Used a steel storage shelve jacked from moms garage. Think is was 2'x4' shelve grey steel  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... 
Similar effect, far more cost effective.

Re: STORAGE BOX FOR H3
That works super low cost.
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.
