I considering get a fridge for my D3 but I'm struggling to visulaise what they look like when fitted and how much space they take up. I've considered various locations including using some kind of fixing plate on the middle seat of the second row to avoid stealing boot space.
Does anyone have any photos of thier installation?

Very easy, 4 Torx bolts. (From memory T50's)
Fold/lift seat to the 'vertical' position, then unbolt. Replace bolts in holes whilst seat removed, otherwise the holes are open to water/dust/mud.Long succession of Disco's since 2001...

Put lightweight lash down eyes on with seat bolts then you can fasten fridge down.

very nice setup!
Do you have heated rear seats`?
at first sight it looked complicated to me....but that was after nightshift so
I guess I'll have another look then some
Depending on what trip and what passengers - I do the same as Henrik except I just drop the seat down place the fridge at floor level and tie it down - there's always brackets to tie down to under the seat.
If its a big trip and/or I've a full house inside then I fit one or 2 fridges in the rear compartment - works real well.
At times there's no fridge at all - but mostly I have it in the middle back seat

I just pulled the centre seat out as I dont need it, saves me from stopping
to get at it, that's the co-pilots job.
