Found a CHEAP solution that I'm very happy with! This $21 restaurant shelf (link -> 12"x54" shelf) fits perfectly in the rear and rests just atop the cargo tie down points on the rear trim. Secured with heavy duty zip ties and put some thick adhesive rubber "feet" on the corners to keep it quiet. It should hold all kinds of extra cargo and has a weight limit only limited by the strength of the plastic rear trim.
Inspires me to take a measurement and head to the nearest big box lumber store. I seem to remember they have a whole shelving aisle with pre-made metal wire shelving in a wide variety of options. Thanks!
Now to figure out what to do with the left over shelves...

Exactly! And like the $21 shelf linked in my post, you're looking for something that's in the 54-56" width range and I would say no wider than 16". No reason to pay $200-300 for one online...
It has been awhile since this was posted but maybe you are still on this site. I am interested in the rings that are attached to the opening between the two safari windows. Do you recall where you got these? Thank you

@Jemez Springs NM Here's the screenshot with the ingredients. Hope this helps.
I'll be on the trip tomorrow morning and had to come up with the cargo shelf idea. Here is the result of mine DIY project
Could I do it better: probably YES
Could I do it cheaper: probably NOT
Resources used:
2 telescopic steel painting poles (1-2 m) 5 EUR each (removed plastics on both ends)
zip ties
fence panel (leftover from my backyard)
self-adhesive foam (for shock-proof and sound/vibration prevention)
2 hrs workload
PROs: cheap, fast setup/removal CONs: less payload (tested with approx 20 kg and was OK) comparing to professional ones
Wow! Just, wow @navkol . I have done a variety of things with wire fencing over the years and can NEVER get the bends that nice. They were never for anything other than around a farm or house, but I can tell you - it's hard to get it to look that nice. Well done!
