Thanks MrP much better. I can see now :D Did you just screw the underside of the shelf to the door pillars or did you have other brackets or good old no nails :?:

Luke what gets me is, if it had a front spoiler fitted it would be just like your profile pic :lol: :lol: :lol:

It gives me ideas on what to do I was thinking of something like that across the front but extending the center to the back of the cab. Only thing I'm not sure about is the sun visors sticking down as I'm sure to keep hiting my head on them :?
