I will be fabricating some brackets to support the rear of the top panels. They will install using the OEM holes that were left unoccupied after I gutted out the back seats and all things related.

I haven't decided on the material to use just yet but I'm leaning towards aluminum. Planning on using a piano hinge to allow the back panel to open and close... I'll figure out the latching mechanism later... may even use velcro.

I think the hardest part will be making sure I get the bend right. If I make the top bottom panel in two parts, I may include a storage compartment. I'm also considering making the top bottom panel one long piece instead of two.

so far so good....
