Above Visor Storage Tray

Very useful for sunglasses and keys. Easy access.

Headliner Storage Tray

I have a pair of these installed for the past couple of years & they work great, even with the hard top.

Here’s what I have. The Bronco seems to need a little bit of help when it comes to storage options.

I want to do something like this from Mountains2Metal

but I'm having a hard time justifying $100 for it.
Just need to sit down & figure out how to make a couple myself

Looks nice but you’re right that the price is kinda steep…

Yeah. My issue with a lot of this stuff is that I work for a fabrication shop & it's my job to price parts.
So I can look at that, know how much the material cost is & estimate the labor & know what it costs to produce & how much they're making.

I'm all for a company making a fair profit, but something like that has like $10 in material cost & less than 30 mins in labor, feels like it's overpriced by about 30%. i'd pay 60/65 for it.
Anything more than that has me feeling like I can make it myself with the equipment I have access to.

Take it to your prototype group and ask them to 3D print one for you as a proof of concept…

I bought one of these for the driver side. I had to trim the front so it is easier to get you items in/out. For the money they are OK.

I have one of those and need to trim the front also. I wasn't sure if it would hold it's shape since the material is rather thin. I thought they were sold in pairs and for the price it seemed a little steep for just one.

My son 3d printed a couple of sunglasses holder for mine… they work fine if i can keep them attached, as they don’t have a hook and require double stick tape or the like…

If you, or somebody you know, have/has a 3D printer, you can do this for pennies:

Go to:
makerworld.com
and search "Bronco" (or other things) for a wealth of stuff that can be printed. My son--who's very savvy on all this, he'll print me a pair of trays--says this is what a lot of Etsy is: people with printers making stuff for cheap and selling it for a good profit. Also, I suppose, a lot of neat Mabbet stuff.

Check my post, my son has made me a pair, haven't picked them up yet. Maybe the brackets from my son's design will fit yours. If you can tolerate holes, you might bolt them with some plastic interior panel rivets or fasteners.
We also want to keep in mind what happens when we remove the roof panels.
