Tuffy Security Console Insert
Hi all, new guy here from Michigan. I ordered my Sahara 2dr on Dec 1, and cannot wait for it. It will be my first Jeep. All my kids are grown and now it is time for me to get what I always wanted.
I was looking at this Tuffy security console, and it looks like something might want. I need to lock up my pistol at times and this looks like a good thing. Anyone have one of these, or have seen one up close? I wonder how much work is involved in installing one. Any information would be appreciated.

Here's some better shots of the console insert that I took at SEMA...
I have just a regular Tuffy Security Console in my CJ and can tell you that it really is tough. Certainly, it would take a lot of effort to break into.

I, too, was looking into one of these. Our JK will have the khaki interior, and the black box is really going to stand out. I was kinda hoping they'll make a khaki colored version so it has more of a stock appearance and doesn't stand out like a sore thumb saying, "Look at me, I have valuables inside me!" I suppose I could paint it and have it recovered, but I shouldn't have to do that. If Tuffy is going to go through the work of designing a box for the JK, and the JK only comes with two interior colors, it sure makes sense to me to offer it in two colors to help it blend in. Anyone with me on this one?!?!

Hey welcome to the forum. This place is addictive. I am going to get one of those also. Hopefully they will make it in grey, but probably not. I found out today that the glove box is very easy to take out, hopefully they will make a glove box insert also.

My perfect solution would be to have a welder weld a lockable steel plate on top of where that little cargo space is in rear. It could be hinged and hid under the rear rug. No one would ever know you have an in the floor safe.
