Just pile clutter on top... ratty looking backpack .. a blanket bunched up that looked like the cat or dog had slept in it.. etc..  a couple of pillows.. the homeless look.. and as Bill said, styrafoam fridges .  leave some hard copy maps spread out on the front non driver's seat..

another idea.. tidy stuff at bottom of big ordinary cardboard box from Walmart or costco with books or rolls of john paper on top..

or maybe some crappy plastic kids beach stuff...

I would like a better way of storing camera gear which keeps it well protected,

it is filled with valuables.

My clever idea is that I could make trays that fit in an ice chest to hold 
lenses, speed lights etc.  Ice chests are weather resistant, and with their 
double wall construction, would provide better protection than the standard 
camera bag.  There would be some sort of trick to making the trays to hold 
lenses, or whatever.

I doubt that I am the first person to come up with this idea, and it would be 
handy to learn from other people’s mistakes.

FWIW, There is now a wide range of stackable toolboxes, Home Depot sells some 
made by Rigid, that also work pretty well for this, but they do have the 
disadvantage of looking like they might contain something valuable, if someone 
were to see them in the back of my van.
