Looks like someone has been overfilling their tool tray  Tempting I know if you have made a larger capacity one to replace OE which has just molded cut-outs for basic tools. I make a note to repack mine carefully so lid stays flush with surrounds.

Richard,
I have a design for a replacement tool tray in ali but for your car you will need to modify it slightly. There is a thread on it on here somewhere started by Frank 4x4.

As well as above what about an enlarged pivot hole with a nylon insert such that the self tapper could be nipped up hard against it and so allow continued resistance to turning without having to regularly nip up screw Richard,

Thanks John but got one already  My own modification to an established design, and to suit the five link rear. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/ozMX2xV.jpg)

Very smart Richard. As always an elegant solution. Makes mine look like a bodge.
