  Can any body help with a plan of the frame for the storage area behind my seat. I have the metal brackets that are fixed to the sills on each side and the one in the middle of the floor . is there a wood frame that is fixed to these brackets . also it must be fixed to the under side of the rear storage tray. Thanks Regards from New Zealand Stewart Quertier.

  The package shelf is 5/8 plywood. Just to the right of the drive tunnel there is a bracket on the floor . There is a wood brace that goes from the floor bracket to the bottom of the package tray. The brace is attached to the shelf with an "L" bracket. The wood brace is approximately 3/4 inch X 3 inches and it supports the front edge of the package tray.
