Abstract: We describe our adaptation of a leased 2025 right-hand drive Jeep Wrangler for use in our catch basin program. Our focus was to minimize unnecessary drilling by conforming to existing factory mounts while keeping the functionality simple and clean. By utilizing upgraded available accessory storage compartments, we eliminated the need for awkward and vision obstructing plastic driver-chemical dividers. The four-door configuration and rear-seat organizers provide additional storage with easy access to safety equipment, public outreach materials, and personal or seasonal gear. In addition, modified and custom-built brackets for spray bottles, trigger wands, and dry chemicals contributed to this ergonomic version.
