Also the water streaks along the back window cover the whole width of the window not just the center where the light is. Maby I'm wrong who knows lol

Awesome, just the storage I need. I may use a couple of those very large plastic zip ties!

I may pull my brackets off, drill a 1/6" hole through that pin (not much sticks out on mine, no leather strap, zip tie, etc) and run 1/16 coated cable through it and loop it up to the headrest. may just drill and tap it, run 10-32 SHCS and small washer. Thinking raise headrest, pull cable, folds down.

I did notice that if you move that stationary bar that that latch grabs it is somewhat of a pain to get lined back up. Sharpie mark should fix that. Not fast and a lot of storage, but if you have small regular items and you have a few items on your seat, floorboard, this storage may be the ticket.

Funny thing is I crammed a small rolled up blanket up in there, lock out kit, antenna, and a few other items. Easier to get to now!

Just pulled mine down and MAN that's a lot of room back there. I was able to put a tool kit, tow hook, strap, and some other odd's and ends back there. Right now I have a 50lb fishing line wrapped to it and left a loop at the top.. plan to find a better way to release it when I get a few min.

Cord used is Archery string loop (firm) material.

This works very slick if you don't lift the bottom of the seat and only operate the setback. The floating anchor pin stays in position to latch the seat back.

*Note the pink cord was used for my buddies pickup. He hates me for the choice of color, but likes how slick it works. The cable was something I was thinking of using and may have but it wasn't plastic coated.

Gunner, I like the way you did that. I done mine a while back but I used framing (pic) wire & twisted it & then put electrical tape around it to keep it from sticking your fingers. Your looks a lot better. Good Job & thanks for posting.
