Default Looking for help with a storage idea...

After seeing a new seat cover that was covered with M.O.L.L.E. webbing that could attatch multiple gear bags, I'd like to make a cover for the inside of the tailgate that has the molle webbing so that I could put packs for first aid kits, survival gear, etc.

For an idea of what I am talking about, check out this rear seat cover:

I'd like the inside of my tailgate to be covered with that fabric so that I can put small gear bags there. I think it would solve some storage problems for the smaller gear I want to carry.

Are you thinking about fixing it to the gate with adhesive or fasteners?

That might work, where did you see that rig?

After looking at the chest rigs available on the internet, I've decided to make my own molle panel. I haven't figured out the whole setup, but I plan on using fasteners to attatch to the tailgate. I'll put up a picture or two when I get the chance, if anyone is interested.

So far, the panel I'm constructing is 26in wide and 12in tall.

Go to one of the local painball/mil surp stores.
You will find lots of things you can rig up.

My local paintball shop doesn't have what I want, nor does the local military store.

So.....

I've made my panel and taken a pic of the mock up, but I'm unable to post it right now. I'll need to read through the how-to on pic posting...
