Options for storing tools, etc in cargo area to keep them from sliding around.

I have ratchet straps, emergency toolkit, etc. that I keep in the back but looking for a container of some sort that looks OEM and can be secured so it doesn't flop around.

I know I'm nitpicking but just got the cool console organizer, glovebox organizer and rubber inserts for all the cupholders & door pulls so I'm hoping for something in the cargo area that looks like it 'belongs'.

TIA!

I managed to fit two recovery straps in the left side panel where the jack is located. I keep a tire inflator loose in the back but really have tried to secure it much.
 
I found a tool bag works best. Mine is overpacked with all kinds of tools for the road. And I have it strapped to the cubby divider. Never moves even if its not strapped down.

I keep all my additional off road straps and gear in my roof top box when i am adventuring deep in the woods.

Good priority to have NYvram, nothin’ worse than getting tagged in the head by flying tools.

For us, we wanted our gear to stay put so we used rago panels and shelf, and also an AJC tiedown plate(substitute a goose gear plate if you prefer) that gives us two levels to be able to secure our gear in bags, small totes/boxes and our fridge slide. It also allows us to slick our cargo area for bulky items, as needed. (Unlike permanent drawers)

The containers themselves are all from home depot. A mix of Plano and ruggedized rubbermaid, pictured below. The black and green bag is my recovery gear.
