I bought both, I sold the Bestop one. The tuffy one is much better and I needed a place to pack a full size piece. I like to go out after work sometimes and I carry my secondary in and leave the primary in the Jeep, now I have a good secure place to put it.

I installed mine last weekend. Had to add a little rubber to the drawer where it meets the casing. It was rattling and sounded like I left a sledgehammer under my seat. A little rubber padding and it is perfect for what I need it for. Good lord those seat bolts are tough.

Installed the bestop in about 10 mins, threw a washer under the inside bracket to keep it level. Whether I would have felt a 1/16th tilt or not, i won't imagine a lean now. It'd be a tight fit with a larger handgun, but that's what they make subcompacts for. Nothing is going to stop a determined thief, but the more difficult I can make it for someone to get my stuff the better, they'll move on to a vehicle w/out a lockbox.
