Default hidden compartment

Thought i share this with the group.I made a fake bottom for the center console out of 22 ga sheet metal(2 90 deg bends for legs)and covered it with some black vinyl.so when dropped in to place you have 1 1/4 inch of space under the fake bottom to hide something.the fake bottom fits very tight and is really hard to remove with out tools and is almost invisible when looking at the bottom of the console.so for easy removal i bought a rare earth magnet(1/2" x 1/2") that i keep else were in the jeep(kinda like a key for a lock that no one can see)so when one needs to remove the fake bottom just put your magnet on top of the panel and lift.
