Looks like a good idea! I couldn't find it on their website, though

I wouldn't mind something like that at all. My wife's minivan has a under seat storage under the passenger seat and that thing is handy. FYI- sorry to say the "M" word in a jeep forum

I didn't find it on their site either, but I did find the instructions. Pretty simple.

Nope. The passenger seat has some electronic crap under the seat that the driver's side does not have.

I like it! Was getting ready to buy one of the Magill's gunsafes that go under the seat. But I think I like this idea better. Now to just find some torx head bolts to hold the seat down!!

Didn't even think, that if someone wanted what is inside the box, they could just remove the two bolts holding it in. Granted usually thieves only have a few minutes and wouldn't take the time to remove the bolts....but you never know? The TORX head is a good idea though! It would at least add some time to the removal if they even had the torx by some miracle.

I like this box though...wish I knew the cost....

If you worried about the bolts, you could always tack weld a little spot on top of the bolt to prevent it from spinning without a grinder.
