A Mate of mine has a TD5 which he has taken the two fold dowm seats out of and replaced with storage boxes from a TD5 commercial. What I want to know is do they make these boxes for the 300 TDi ? as i would like some. I called paddocks but they don't know
 
I think making them will be the end result does anyone have any pictures of theirs for ideas ? Also if you make it into a 5 seater does the insurance go down ?

i have yet to mention the fact that mine now only has 2 seats instead of 7 :doh:
let me know how u get on :D
 
My TD5 is a 5 seat and has the storage bins fitted in the rear as standard.
I will take a photo later and post it on here for you if you want.

I have made a plywood box, with 7 storage drawers on wheels that roll out, retained by webbing. It carries **** loads of gear, well, everything we used in Morocco for a month. It backs up to the seat backs & dog guard.
5 ply sheets, shelving brackets, etc all got from B&Q.
NB if you extend the top half into the rear window bay above the storage bins/where seats 6&7 are/were youll need to assemble the top half when the bottom is in the car-experience of ****ing up & having to dismantle it!
Also dont use a handsaw-use a good jigsaw, much easier.

Its took me ages to resize these i hope it works,
These are the 2 bins in the rear of my TD5 if you want any more picture just say what you want and i will take them if i can.

Palace; i havent got the gun box but i can get quite a few cartridges and my flask in them, but the dog dont fit. (Guinia pigs do but they struggle bringing the pheasants back):D
