I posted a weekend project on "what did you do with your 80 this weekend", that resulted in over 20 likes and 2 orders. So I ordered materials, made a logo, and now I have a finished product available. You can see price and my intro special here.
If your not familiar with MOLLE platform, this is the basis for most military/LE "Tactical" gear. Its a series of rows of 1" nylon webbing sewn 1" apart on a backing of 1000d Cordura nylon fabric. Accessory pouches are very easy to find and since the platform us fairly universal, these pouches can be mounted to the platform.
I have a professional sewing machine and have experience fabricating MOLLE gear for "running and gunning" activities and outdoor gear, so I thought I would put it to use on our beloved Land Cruiser.
The product is a heavy duty nylon bag with a velcro closure, you remove your existing panel from the back of the front seat, slide it into the bag, and reinstall. Its really simple, and requires NO modification to your existing panel.
This is the finished product, and a picture of how I have mine configured. I have my first aid kit, disposable gloves, hand cleaner, leatherman tool, flashlight, spare batts for flashlight, spare magazine, box of ammo, Buck survival knife, and EMT shears. Note: you can even attach Kydex gear to this like my flashlight holster shows.
 
Very cool. I can see these working on FJ40 metal backed seats.

May have to look into something similar for the back of a 60 seat. May require more work since there is no plate. Cool idea TacAnt.
 
Nice and functional! I love the back pocket of my bmw seats in the 60, but would like something similar in black fabric to organize better, and maybe you can add an option for screw/glue/sew on push-buttons or canopy buttons to mount this wherever, like quarter panels, rear doors etc.
