Awhile back I posted about converting dead space above my '04 37C refrig to storage. I popped out the thin filler that gave me access to the empty space above the refrig and built a fold down door with double "grabber" closers to keep the door closed on hard turns. Inside I built 5 inclined ramp trays, each wide enough for a standard veggie can and one ramp for 2 side-by-side tuna cans. I added stops at the bottom corners of each ramp to stop the cans from rolling up against the door. Each ramp can hold 6 to 7 cans and as you use them the others roll down to the front. I've reserved one ramp for green beans, another for corn, etc. For the slide out wire trays in the regular pantries I cut the wire from end to end along the bottom center and inserted a thin piece of plywood the size of the opening at the top. Pushing this to the bottom and sandwiching with a similar piece on the outside bottom the baskets are now square instead of wegde shaped. I glued auto-trunk liner (gray) on the inside bottom. Much better for boxes, bottles, etc.
