Default MOLLE for back of the rear seat

does anyone make a panel or seat cover that places a MOLLE mounting system on the back of the rear seat for an XJ?

I know rugged ridge makes on for my YJ.

I was looking at this area as a good place to mount molle carriers and possibly a gun case.

I have a double gun case with storage compartments in that that I bought from Cabel's that I carry my HK-91 and a Mossberg 590-A1 12ga. 9 shot in. Fast easy access from driver side rear seat for both guns and storage on that side.

It attaches to the headrest and the bottoms of the seat frames easy on and off and not in the way. It sells for about $20 and comes in black and camo.

I've seen those but I have two two year olds and with them in their car seats their feet are against the back of the front seats. So I really need a back of the rear seat mount.

You can buy molle panels many places online in various colors, lengths, and widths.

Buy some paracord to attach it to the seat.

Stick it to the roof


Rack it on the dash




Between the seat and the door frame



The back of the rear seat, etc...
The possibilities are endless.

Smittybilt makes MOLLE seat covers for front and rear.

They look good, but reviews are mixed as to durability.

http://www.smittybilt.com/product/index/53.htm

They aren't cheap either.

Jrozar are you military? I'm asking because I am retired Army and I was stationed out there at Irwin, about 2 hours from you. Military bases always have a tailor shop on or very near the base. Take a basic design shape and tell them the material and they can make you a Molle mounting assembly for far less than what you can find them for online. Nellis AFB will have tailors that have the Air Force blue pixelated material where as the Army base at Fort Irwin will have Olive Drab, Black or green pixels. I know because I lived there for 4 years.

If I were mounting in my wrangler those would be great ideas, I have a mount for my SBR overhead to my roll cage in my YJ, but your options shown aren't very xj friendly...
