Default Under seat locking storage

I'm aware of Best Top and Tuffy, are these my only options? What is the general consensus on the best, most secure option? I need something with enough space for a GoPro, Glock 30S, and the occasional random item.

They won't work for 2012 and up, at least the 2 door version, that is. I got the Tuffy console box.

I've had the Tuffy drawer in my '08 4-dr JK for years. No issues with it at all. I'm about 6' tall so I scoot the seat all the way back. The front of the drawer comes forward enough to get in the way, especially the curved metal drawer pull. More of a nuisance than anything. Can't fault Tuffy quality, though. I keep my ProCarry, CB, and GoPro in it when I have to leave them behind or overnight when camping/travelling. Big stuff goes in the Tuffy Security Deck Enclosure.

I have the Best Top in my 2012 JKU and love it. Can fit my GoPro 3+ and my Sig Sauer P938 no problem. Seems very secure and hidden well under the drivers seat.

I have a '13 JKU, so are you saying I have no options or your specific storage doesn't work for newer models.

I feel like I've pressed my luck enough going doorless and trusting the factory plastic console and glove box storage with my expensive property. I'd like something soon before doorless season is upon us.

This is one of the better comparison threads I have seen.

Clearance issues with newer 2doors. You have a 4door, so no problem with the tuffy

I have the Tuffy under the seat of my JKUR. Very happy with it, and installation is simple.

I'll be ordering a '15 Rubicon 2 door next weekend and trading my 98 TJ on it. Does anybody know of an underseat storage option that will work? Like OP, would much prefer to have better storage options for my CC.

Get the Tuffy boxes. Order them direct from Tuffy, that way you can get them keyed alike.
