i made one very similar to this out of MDF, then covered it with automotive carpet (speaker box type). i attached it to the roll bars with fence clamps. for the front, i drilled out my footman loop and used some thin scrap metal (i don't know the gauge, but it's slightly thicker than a license plate) to screw to the holes where the footman loop was. then that piece was screwed to the console/rack. i've got my CB on there as well as my flashlight mount and some other misc. items. sorry, i don't have pictures of it just yet.

I like the looks of that... it looks simple and clean and it would work great. whenever you get some pics please post. I'm not installing anything til spring because I can't stand this cold. (no garage either, which sucks a**)
