It gives them something to stand in with a bit of grip, and something comfortable to lay on, there's a bit of thin wood under it too and a couple of dog clips just to make sure they don't jump out when the tail gait is opened.
I also moved the car fridge to the back seat so there's good storage underneath it, the fridge fits there too if I need both rear seats.

Put a button into my JB74 to enable 2WD-Low, for moving a trailer short distances - also put an input in to make the 4WD controller think it's in 4L when it's in 4H, which should let me turn traction control off in 4H, but I need to test that a bit first to make sure it doesn't throw any errors based off revs/wheel speed.

Having removed my rear passenger grab handle to fit the fire extinguisher I have donated the spare handle to the driver front on Spare Jimny. Almost like a dutiful son. That it happens to have taken 6 months is by the by, mother is now happy.

Not what I did, but what my Jimny has done.
Passed it's MOT today with one advisory, due to one tyre having a slight nick in the tyre wall.

I adjusted the headlights. The offside light was too high and both were too far over towards the centre of the road. Lateral adjustment is close to spot on now, height wise they might be a tad low, but still better than most cars I have owned and at least I don’t get flashed at now every 30 seconds.

The LED lights put my 2 seater to shame so sanded, polished and aligned those, they are much better, but not a patch on my Jimny.

I finally got around to putting new shoes on it, Toyo open country RT's, I gave ut a little test too, much more grip on the road and way more off road judging by a run on a little 4x4 track near home.
I think the last two mods will be an 80lt long range tank and a traction board holder either back on the roof or mounted on the spare tire.
