FWIW I use an IW (with solid flap) on mine and it is entirely satisfactory in terms of dryness and security for tools etc.

Pictures look good - is that an IFW option or home design/build?

Standard IW. The solid flap is simply an optional alternative to the "meshgate" suipplied as standard. There is also a solid flap with a window if you prefer.

The only thing that I have found is that there is a gap of about 1/2" between the bottom of the flaps and the "gunwhale" of the rear body/tailgate. You do get a certain amount of fine spray drawn in when driving on really wet roads. However there are alternative rubber seal strips available from some of the kit-car/restoration suppliers that could replace the IW rubber and cover this gap - I've simply never got around to fitting one. All I do on a wet day is put an old blanket over whatever's in the back.

I built this. It's still not finished, but should be pretty secure and dry, just needs a rear cat-flap or door fitting.
