Default 400ex storage

i have a universal 6 pack rack and i need more room so i was wondering if anyone has rigged up a storage container for their 400ex? i noticed if you remove the rear tail light behind the air box you have some room for a storage container. i figure i can use an air box from another quad that i can get at a local salvage yard to serve the purpose of a storage container. i feel this is one of my one options considering i really dont like the idea of putting a big rack on the back of the quad. tell me what u guys think of my idea and im open to any suggestionsyou guys have.
thanks

I have a few friends that have used a piece of 4" PVC, added the screw ends to it, and zip tied it to the empty space up near the front bumper. It works very well for them.

test - figures this post would make it. I lost so many damn posts over the last week I am getting sick of posting.

Think about mounting the 4" PVC under the rear grab bar.

Be careful with mounting alot of crap off the rear of your quad...I have seen those six-pack racks bend a subframe because of too much weight in it and the leverage from it....if you add more stuff back there watch out for that....
