Thanks for the video mate. There are many little extras that make camping just that much more enjoyable. The rear door table though would have to be right up there with the best. A small investment for a huge return.
Hey thanks for the article and the drawing details. Made my own panel based on your dimensions though had to reduce by a couple of mm's all round to make a nice fit, used 3mm ply which I'll cover to match the interior. Much appreciated and saved me a bunch of cash!
Appreciate the time and effort you put into you videos. Very instructive and easy to follow. Nice job. Have to look again at my own set up. Thanks....Gerbal Ireland
every time bret, great video, my rear table set up is quite similar, but ive recessed the stove into the table and fabricated a cover for it so when its not in use i dont lose table space, cheers for the vid mate,
been looking to do this to my 200tdi landy but cant even find anywhere in the uk that sells these, this vid will save me a lot of time and effort thanks man :)
+Ed Willcox Don't think anyone makes them.. Just jump on my website and use my measurements (recheck with your door) and have your own made up. Cost me $100 to have the aluminium cut to shape. The rest was a trip to the hardware store. Thanks
Does anyone know any movies, programmes, documentaries... About expeditions and exploring? Desert,rainforest, mountain... Anything, if it includes defenders better still haha
Great idea, will those plans be the same for the Td5 I wonder, I would be also temped to dampen the rattling by insulating the inside of the panel or putting some rubber gasket around it! Have you ever thought about using the space underneath the side body in front of the rear wheels as storage, I know you can buy Jerry can lockers that fit there but they are limited, if you could instead make an access panel from the top & then just install a false bottom using the existing bodywork it would provide a huge amount of secure storage for non everyday items like tools. I intent to do when it warms up a bit here in Blighty, I should also make a video too.
Btw, in the UK we have a product called Alu-panel, it's a laminated material, it would be great for what I suggest & what you have done, but you can cut it yourself with a jig saw or circular saw, easy peasy.
Not sure with a TD5 but the measurements are all on my website so easy to cross check. Did think about installing an exterior locker but ready made ones are about $700. Custom built ones cheaper... just didn't get around to it in the end.

That's quite surprising seeing the amount of aftermarket gear available. Enjoy your build.
Excellent clip. I am looking for one of these for my 110.

Where did you get this made mate?
I did the design then took it to a local aluminium fabricator, who cut it all to shape. I then did the rest myself.
I like me hot sauces too 🍻
Thanks buddy, head to Bunnings tomorrow :)
