Just had to comment here.

The original poster's solution to the closet door problem is both clever and
effective. Excellent idea, wish I had thought of it! I'll cut my closet door
ASAP. Kudos' for and excellent suggestion.

As to the problem of location of the rear table and fixing it in place during
one's travels, I developed my solution in 1983. I was having trouble with the
rear table swinging out during hard turns (when starting up - was a diesel
then). I torqued down the retaining screws, but then SWMBO couldn't undo
them. So observing that the table rest position was very specific, I removed
the locking bolts from the pedestal pipe and the table flange, used a fine
line marker to outline the bore of the bolt, took out the table and pipe and
cut clearance holes (to just clear the thread OD of the bolt). Actually I
also drilled a set point hole to also lock the position parallel to the rear
seat. So when traveling, I merely tighten down the bolt until it comes to the
threaded stop. The bolt proceeds into the pipe --- and the pipe/table is
fixed in position. No rattle, no hassle. If I need an unusual angle, the
normal function of bolt pressing against pipe sidewall works just fine.

I also raised the swing pipe/rear table about 3/8 inch above the stock
position so I can store the front table face down under the rear table. Just
enough friction to keep it in place at all times. This let me put the second
CD changer behind the drivers front seat.
