Anyone running Aeris Rear Security Cover or Tuffy's Rear Security Cover?
I would like to but I am a Do-It-Yourself kinda guy...therefore, I made my own. It may not be as strong as either companies products but it does keep the prying eyes from prying my wife's goods when I take her shopping.
So began my quest to spend some quality time with the ol' Jeep. It just so happened that we were throwing away an old ping pong table at work. Whoa! Hold the press! I can make use of that. I have an idea! I can use the old top to make my template for the rear cargo cover. Throw that baby in the back of the Jeep instead of the big green storage bin out back! Well as I worked and listened to the radio, my battery went dead. Good thing I have a radio in the garage! I had some old brackets laying around that would mount to the hard top locations and hold the top in place. I then used a couple of 2x4's underneath as support with tie-down brackets on top.
Two summers later and I finally got around to finishing the top with a little bit of carpet to make it look cleaner than the original black top.
I did add a front piece to the cover to keep access from behind the seats to, um, none. All hardware is on the inside so it's locked with the rear gate.
You know I am all about the pics so without further ado:
