Default What is this

This blue thing was installed in the trunk of my car by a PO and I would love to know what it is. Any ideas appreciated. Jim

Looks like a place to store road flares in case of emergencies. Pretty light weight brackets for anything heavier.

Looks like a devise designed to rip holes in the trunk liner, when weight is applied.
