Rear Storage Compartment Upgrade

Post by M_MINCEY »

Over the years the trim in my rear storage compartment became worn out. Water seems to have leak in during a bad rain and damage the interior on the compartment. I tried a few different configurations but it never was the same. So I decided to remove it completely and go with this, it serves my needs at the moment and now I have a water tight seal. I may try something else later, but for now this will work. It cost me around $50 in materials from Lowes.

Nice clean look, do you have easy access to get behind it if needed?

Thank you! Each panel can be removed or replaced if needed, one screw on either side of panel. Because of the compartment size and shape, I found it easier to create it like building blocks. I didn’t have any real wood working skills, so the building blocks method seem to work for me.
