Anyone have a good solution for a box or storage unit to keep your show stuff organized that will fit well between the wheel wells?
Pix please?
If purchased solution where'd you buy it?
 
I have bags with pockets that slip over the headrests and hang behind the seats. I keep a good tool kit, various fluids, safety vests, and other small stuff in them. I don't know what you mean by "show stuff" though. I let the rear area be free because I don't want to cover the rear speakers, or block the sub-woofer that's against the rear of the area under the lowered top. When the occasion requires I can also fit a pair of airline under-seat bags in the rear but they'll block the speakers. hth
 
Well I was talking about various detail supplies such as towels,tire dressing, quick detailer armour all type stuff.
I had a bottle of tire dressing behind the drivers seat that fell over the other day and leaked out a couple ounces before i caught it.

Wish list: I was thinking of a footlocker type box tall enough for bottles that would fit between the speakers without blocking them and light enough to pull out and slide under the rear of the car. I should also be of a size to allow the top to be stowed in the back as well.
 
I get it. I'd look for a plastic storage box of the right size at Walmart, or Home Depot or Lowes - something for heavier and or nastier items, as opposed to the clothing storage containers found in dept stores or kMart. I use a 12 x 12 x 12 one to keep ammo in, it also has handles and a sliding latch lid to keep stuff inside.
 
I know that some do away with their spare tire, then use that area for their cleaning & show supplies. I know that after having my car for over 25 years, that I haven't needed a spare tire yet.
 
Ummmm If the spare is kept under the rear, aft of the axle, that's not a good idea. The presence of the tire is part of the vehicle's rear-collision protection, or so I've read in this forum. It's also a PITA to access.
