The Add A Trunk requires you to drill 4 small holes in the side not the floor. I drilled mine through the carpet. You cant really see the holes if you take the trunk out.

Will any of these still work if the rear seat is removed?

The Add A Trunk will work as it is closed where it meets the back seats.

Wakerunner, or whomever else has a Flexatrunk-

What's involved with taking out the metal plate that rests up against the seat?

Assuming I need full length with seats down to move something large, what do I need to do to make that happen? How long does it take?

Ok guys, I need your help! I have the two door JK and took the rear seats out. Will either of these secure the entire rear area or will it stop where the rear seats use to be? I kinda want the entire back end to be covered and secure.

Alright... So I started the install of my Flexatrunk. Here's some info I would have liked to know before buying...

- The metal divider is held by 4 carriage bolts. They would be easy to remove IF they weren't held by the plastic side pieces which strip easily, thus the carriage bolt spins and cannot be un-done, or tightened fully. So far I have 2 carriage bolts that stripped the plastic with little to no effort. One is pretty loose and I can't tighten it further.

- The side pieces are made of flexible plastic which bends as you insert the top pieces. I wish they were made of stronger stuff.

- The Husky liner does not fit within the Flexatrunk's confines, although you can mount the Flexatrunk on top of it. If you do that, then you have to cut away a section on the left so it can bend when you open the cubby.

Well, there you go. I wish Tuffy would offer something like this, but I guess this'll do for now...
