I've never seen any thing like that for an XJ. But it is a sweet idea. I'm thinking about making something like that myself.

yeah mines my DD and i need the back seat for my stuff dogs,, friends, ect. and my sub boxes would interfere with a drawer.. and i still need to be able to fit me ice fishing gear and ect in the back.so with an angles box it could be tilted and set on top also if i did tht it would give me alil more room...
