No one makes drawer systems specific to the KJ, so I set about making one. Took inspiration from several DIY build out on the interwebs and overall I am pretty pleased with the outcome, bit rough around the edges but hey at least I can say "I made that!!" Favorite feature is the tilting fridge drawer.

 

Stage 2 will come a little later, and will add some shelves to the left of the fridge and a top full width shelf that'll be accessable from the front seats. Rear side windows are going to be replaced with gulwings and custom cabinets will be made to slot into the portholes to maximize storage!!

 

Let me know what you think!

Looks tidy!

Is the section under the fridge drawer new?  Presumably the reason the fridge drawer tilts is that otherwise you would need steps tosee into it?

Yeah the drawer unit under the fridge shelf is new, built that as well. Yeah the idea behind the tilting shelf was ease of access to the fridge interior.

Looks really good.  What have you 'wrapped' the drawers in, is it a particular type of carpet?  And where did you get the drawer pulls?  I see those pulls on builds on YouTube, but never seen where they are sold in the UK.

The whole unit is wrapped with van lining carpet from Amazon and the drawer pulls came from Amazon as well.
