Trunk Cubby Storage

Has anybody ever seen any sort of custom fit storage bin for the left (or right) trunk storage cubby? I find that the net is basically useless and would really prefer a container that was custom fit to the space that I could pull out to get what I need. Sort of like they make custom speaker enclosures for that space I was hoping there might be some special storage.

I've struggled with this too. Recently, I discovered Dewalt Tstak organizers which I secure against the back of the trunk with a bungee cord.

They come in all sorts of configurations, from a simple tool tote to drawer. The tool tote + drawer fit side by wide perfectly. Tomorrow I'll post a photo.

I won't be able to post the photo until late afternoon.

The storage is mostly equipment for the track including, but not limited to, wrenches, nuts, bolts, tire pressure gauge, gloves, zip ties, air compressor, paper and cloth towles, cleaning supplies, especially aerosol windex, funnel, kneeling pad, blue tape, flashlight, etc). I remove the 1.5 ton floor jack and stands once the track season ends. It's too heavy to lug around.

I also keep a flask of whisky (in case I get stranded).

The flask of whisky made me

How about food or water to survive?

Cross this idea off the list if you are a golfer. Need that space open to fit clubs! At least the left side.
