They tend to be a plastic box fitted to the back of a standard size hatch, eg 375mm x 275mm. Some have compartments inside for bits and bobs - I don't think you'd get a pair of decent gloves to fit inside this type, but they're handy for fishing tackle.

Sorry I have not seen any available on the internet.
To commission a grp manufacturer to make one would be expensive.

Or for a one off you could try to make one yourself.

I have seen them and yes they have limited storage but as you say bits of fishing tackle or fuses and a few small engine spares they are ideal..
