    Cool. The lid looks like something you might find a West Marine.

    I like that a LOT!! Slim and compact. Does it lock or could you add a lock to it? Have you considered making some to sell?

    Love it! I'm trying to figure out what I want to do to add storage. I'm not thrilled Toyota left that great storage location under the back seat empty/useless.

    The ESP undersea storage is pretty nice, and easy to install.

    Cool!.. If you do, I would like to be on of the first on your list please and would want locking. I have the factory bed rails so not sure if the mounting would be different since you have an angle rail on yours.

    My box is mounted using the bed rail mount screws. I just pulled the bed rail off marked and drilled holes in my mounting plate and reinstalled my bed rail. Factory screws were more than long enough

    I'm debating this, but the cost is a little high for vacuum formed ABS. $200 for the steel lockable wouldn't be too bad, but I can build custom boxes and redirect those funds to other upgrades.

    In fact, I am thinking under one seat about cutting out the foam and installing my ham rigs in that cavity.
