Default slide out drawers

as a man who has gone through two painful hernia operations i opted for the sliding drawer, that was the most expensive part of my box 35.00 from Ikea. it was well worth it though as it is a solid wood (not particle) drawer and glides like butter. i debated weather or not to add a second drawer. but opted to keep the height inside the box instead.

How about some way of securing the draws, as well as securing the box to the jeep.

i have a cabinet door that closes over the drawer top no issue. it looks like you can pull it open, but you can 't unless the door is open.

as for securing the box, right now i have a cable through the box for security, but i have not hard mounted it to the jeep, my issue is the nifty stock storage and getting at that flap. i could have made a better design if i removed the sub, but i did not want to do that. as it is now when i pull the box out the jeep is returned to stock config. no holes sub still there etc.

i welcome some ideas on how i might acheive access to the under storage and hard mount the box. one edge of the box sits on ethe cover for the floor storage, so that is my major hurdle?/???
