Searching for rear seat delete that is flat to rear of car

I am looking for a rear seat delete, preferably carpeted that goes from the back of the front seats to the very rear of the auto. Most of the rear seat delete kits leave the little depression in the back of the car. We need it to be flat all they way. I'm thinking I may have to get the saw out and fabricate one, but maybe you guys now of one available.
This is for my Daughters 2011 JustaCooper and she has a St Bernard that rides with her most of the time.
If anyone has any leads, just let me know. If not, well I guess the saw goes to work again...
As always, thanks in advance for the help as you guys are always the most helpful..We have three MINI's and have received much valuable advise here.

You are going to have to fabricate it as all of them drop off like that.

i made one for my MCS. removed rear seat backs and bracket, seat bottom, cut a polystyrene foam fill blocks to make everything level and then put down 1/4 baltic birch plywood to make a sub deck on top of the foam.

i had a local auto upholstery shop make a carpeted deck that just lays on top of the plywood deck. everything is super tight so there are no gaps around the side and it all attaches to the layer below it (except the carpet layer, it just floats).

see this thread for some pictures and ideas for your delete...

good luck!

Appreciate the replies guys. I guess I will have to get out the saw. The rear seat delete I have in my 04 MCS was custom made in plywood and fiberglassed, then carpeted with speaker box carpet and works and looks really good. It also seems like a lot of work, but I guess its out with the saw unless anyone has any other ideas. Thanks again for the replies and the reference to the thread.
