ABSTRACT:
A shelf for carrying articles in a vehicle, such as a pickup truck, is formed from a single piece of metal, such as steel or aluminum to provide an elongated shelf having an up-turned and inwardly angled rear lip to prevent articles placed on the shelf from falling off. Mounting brackets are attached to the opposite ends of the shelf. The mounting brackets each have flange portions which extend inwardly toward one another over the shelf member itself; and these flange portions have holes in them to permit mounting of the shelf in the sunvisor mounting holes already in the vehicle. When installed, the mounting brackets are essentially concealed and the shelf is spaced a short distance from the roof of the vehicle immediately adjacent the upper edge of the windshield.
