[s-cars] In car tool storage

[Wayne Dohnal]

If you have the disgusting space-saver spare, here's what I did:

1. Flip the spare upside-down.  This adds the space inside the wheel to your
storage.  Good for jumper cables and other odd-shaped things.  It requires
adding a sleeve to the tire hold-down.  I cut a section of plastic drain
pipe for this.

2. With the spare upside-down, 2 of the rectangular plastic cases from Home
Depot exactly fit between the top of the tire and the removable trunk floor
panel.  Tool kit is in the 2 cases.

3. And not related to the spare, I placed a plastic Rubbermaid storage box
on the top shelf on both sides of the ski sack opening, securing each with a
couple of small
screws through the rear seat frame.  They hold things like a blanket, ice
scraper, gloves, spare parts, and other silly things I like to carry.

I carry a pretty full tool set and lots of other junk with nothing sliding
around.
