trunk area left and right openings in rear qtr January 03, 2015, 05:42:52 PM I seem to recall "at least" one side of the trunk like on the driver side where during a couple years there was a drop in plastic tool container.I am interested in using the left and right openings as storage for my son's car we are redoing.If there are in fact oem drop in tool containers, that would be nice to find.Its either that or we make them ourselves because I don't want to dent the exterior of the rear fenders with things that get dropped in.thoughts?

Had to, mine had the 3.8 and it always leaked oil, LOLThe fuel filler intrudes on the passenger side..not sure I ever kept anything over there. I also had my trunk full of subs and amps, so I needed every inch of space I could get. Quote Selected

I did still have the tire shaped cover for the quarter panel though Quote Selected
