What seat covers are these?
UZJ100 Tuff Duck Slip Covers - Specter Off-Road

Man that is stretching the memory... but thanks to Amazon I can tell you it was 8 ft. 7 would have done it if memory serves... but it is cheaper to by 8!
Lining the drawer makes a huge difference when they are not completely full. I ended up adding some partitions (one in quarters the other 1/3) that are removable just to keep anything stored from building up too much inertia as it moved around.
So if I want to bolt tie downs to the top, will I need to trim an inch or so off the back of the drawer so it doesn't catch on the bolts when the drawer slides out? I'm doing flip-ups for the wings so bolting the tie downs to them isn't an option.
Seems like there are so many other options. Maybe I have too many negative associations tied to deck staining and the products used there.
Could work! Where did you find this? I looked and couldn't find it.
Ahh! Found 'em. They're called 'sex bolts'. No the only question I have is how I can order them without my wife becoming suspicious.
Thanks!
Just saw this post, sorry. They're Coverking from Costco. Not great like the SOR but it works well for the purpose.

Hello- I'm considering this mod of fixed 'drawer wings'
I searched for the 6 hole angle bracket but only coming up with 4 hole
Materials list /part numbers for components used ?
TIA

Here you go. You probably don't need 24 of the 3061 screws, I went overboard. I used some extras (single hole brackets and t-nuts) from the original kit, so make sure you count according to what you have. For the 1010-S, I believe I ordered 2 x 3" and 2 x 4" lengths. Also, you'll need 8 self-tapping screws (9320), not 4 if you decide to go that route.

I just realized I never posted my KISS drawers.
Started with the base drawers, added hinged wings as to not lose any storage added an additional support bracket for the wings, added carpet, and then created a flip over sleeping platform.
I did this for two reasons.
I get to keep the full use of my rear passenger seats and when I'm ready to set up camp, I just fold the seats flip the platform over then throw my sleeping pad/bag back there, and camp is set up for the evening.
Then I created a super simple shelf that attaches to the front of the drawers. I've got to be careful with this one because too much weight and the drawer fronts will fail as they're not built to hold much weight.
I'm sure I'll do some more modifications to this eventually, but I really like how it turned out, a couple modifications I'm thinking of is a hinged drawer topper that can be popped up to give more prep/work area or maybe some dividers to better organize the other drawer. Who knows but the possibilities are nearly endless with this design.
Not bad for a first post! hahah.

THANKS !! I started searching 80/20 site and started piecing this together last night
Nice mod thanks for posting pics
It has been about a year since I installed my KISS drawers and I think its one of the best additions to my setup! Our longest trip was 23 days and we slept inside for 18 nights. And of course several weekenders.
