Guys,
I am building my new set of shelves for the rear of the D3 (sad the ones I made for the D2 do't fit), and this time I am wanting to put the fridge on a slide.
Recommendations ? Prefer to spend less than more. But don't want one that will break either.
Thanks,
Scott

Plywood with 90deg angle aluminium as the runners. Bit of ski wax or spray white lithium grease as a lubricant.
Put a couple of tie down points on the top of the ply to tie down the fridge.

I believe that a mate, bought the "runners" & made his own fridge slide. If I can locate the details I will pass it on.
In my case, I needed some slides in a hurry (partner was "on my case") & so I just bought a "Black Widow" fridge slide. Bloody expensive, but works very well (I just mounted it onto some formply which I attached to two of the luggage mount points - partner not keen on my having drawers in the D3, which is a bit of a shame as I love to have all my tools etc in a drawer).

If you are wanting to build your own then this is a company I used to buy slides from.
They aren't cheap but have great extensions and load capacity.
The company is http://www.hafele.com/au/ and are based in Melbourne.
The link below is their catalogue where you can find the slides.

Land Rover offer a sliding load space floor option thing that is even removable:
Not sure if it would be what you're looking for.
It's about middle of the page here (link)
Seems like it would be the easiest to do (likely not the cheapest).
