I just bought the Vector MP Table (28") today. Almost got the Smittybilt G.E.A.R, however I felt the Vector MP was better for what I do. I think the Smittybilt is good, but I like the rigid alloy over cloth, and having a drop down table idea is useful for when I'm camping, cycling, wheeling, or even just need a little extra work bench while in the garage while working on the JK or anything else. I must say, I was on the fence until I saw the 15% off for March 1st - the 7th: that's a savings of nearly $30!
That's my input/ 2 cents. I made a post just like this a week ago an know how you feel.

I had one of the first ones produced and I just don't like how it fit and when loaded up with stuff it sags, So I pulled a bunch of stuff out and keep it minimal now, plus the hardware is all rusted at this point and I'd rather have the utility of the table and molle pack than just the bags. I have never felt comfortable loading them up with just those tiny screws holding them in place.

I ordered a less expensive Molle Panel (cut from 12 gauge steel) from a guy on ebay. The ones he sells usually have "Wrangler" or "Jeep" or "Sahara" cut into the steel panel at the top. He was out of the one I wanted so he asked me what I wanted cut into it. So he put "Eugene" (name of my jeep). I bought some steel inserts from Woods at JeepSwag and bolted it up. Took awhile to get it just right, but I'm pretty happy with it. Got my first aid hooked up and have another bag from springtail solutions on order. I didn't like how some of the fabric ones 'sag' a little, just wasn't for me. Just another option.

Hey thanks,
If you search ebay for "jk tailgate gear MOLLE panel" it should come up. The seller was alanjk427. I got the feeling he usually doesn't do custom work, but
his products are neat anyway. He sold the panel with some long machine screws and plastic spacers, which I tossed. I contacted bret at JeepSwag and he sold
me some of the metal inserts he uses in his tailgate holder kit. Then it's all bolted together with stainless steel 1/4 inch bolts with nuts for spacers. I did have to
cut a piece of the panel out to make room for the Woods Tailgate Holder Mount. The bag I got was on amazon.com and is made by Voodoo. Nice tough material.
Good luck to ya!!
