Hi community,

I am planning on travelling with my Nissan Patrol around Australia during the next year. I am considering buying a drawer system to organize the large amounts of gear that I travel with, since I move all my belongings and don't just travel for a few days or weeks.

After my research the Black Widow (or the other big brands) drawers came into consideration, but one call to Black Widow revealed that these systems are crazy expensive:

Twin Drawer System: 2349 AUD (with fridge slide its 2699 AUD)
Forward Twin Floors: 690 AUD
Forward Half Cargo Barrier: 520 AUD
thats already 3559 AUD or 3909 AUD

plus assembly for around 600 AUD

Unfortunately I don't have any tools or welding capabilities, thus saving money by DIY seems out of the question I guess :-(

I recon you can probably get 10% off if you start haggling or would I be better of asking around the 4x4 workshops to get it a lot cheaper?

My biggest concern is that once I sell the Patrol with these drawers in one year from now, that no one will pay that amount of money for this modification. In the best case they will evaluate around 50% of its price when they make me an offer - or am I wrong?

Cheers

Philipp
