Got this underseat storage unit today.


Recommended Posts

The photo I'll attach is a stock photo but I can't wait to install this underseat storage.  As some of you know I like neat and organized....well in pretty much everything I do.  I'm a perfectionist at fault, of which you all should love me to be the one working on the aircraft you are flying on to wherever...lol....  anyhow, I'll attach a few pics of it installed in a few days and let you all know if it's worthy.  For now that thing gets 5 stars and is only 126 bucks on Amazon right now.  Way cheaper then the other ones. The only thing I don't like is that I need to find a thin rubber padding to put in it.  It being totally plastic means stuff will shift around and make noise.  I hate noise.....lol....

Would love to see pictures after install

I'm going to install it tomorrow evening.  I'll attach some pics.  Like I said before, I need to find some kind of rubber padding to put on it to keep things in place and not sliding around when driving.  I'll figure that out too and attach pics as well.

Put one of these in one of my work trucks (du-ha brand from realtruck.com) absolutely loved it and it was nice bc it came with removable dividers with built in gun racks on them and came with or without locking lid…def kept things from rolling around and organized

also interested to see installed pics.  I've got the Du-Ha brand one as well and it does the job way better than the crappy factory installed one that came in the truck when I bought it.  The dividers are pretty flimsy and don't stay in place real well is about my only complaint so far.

And here it is installed.  Takes about 20 minutes to do.  I had to trim my GM all weather floor liner right in front of the jack mount so it would install flush.  I used an exacto knife, worked excellent.  I just need to find a thin rubber liner to put in it to keep things from moving around but I love it!!

After looking at the pics it appears I need to pull it out a bit at the center point.  Looks a little bowed in lol...I will say this, that baby is locked in there big time.  It's never going to move unless you take it out.

Good thread. Been thinkin about switching mine out. That RC version you got is the best one I’ve seen. Nice.

And a great price as compared to most of the other ones.  I was surprised at its affordability.  $126 from Amazon with free shipping.

Looks good….price is definitely a plus especially bc it looks of good quality

I'm very impressed.  Very sturdy, nothing about it feels cheap or flimsy.  Worth every penny in my opinion.

I’d get one if I didn’t have a car seat and two boosters in the back 24/7 haha. I currently just put my supplies in a couple husky tool bags and slide them under the seats. Works well and allows me to just take those bags to the tailgate when digging around in them.

I made a little more progress today but ran out of double sided tape during the install of the rubber liner, so it looks like crap but it won't soon.  A friend of mine at work suggested I use toolbox drawer liner that is used to keep your tools from sliding around in the drawers.  So he brought in a big roll of it today that he had and said to use what I want.  This stuff is cheap and works amazing.  Here's the link to it on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/CASOMAN-Professional-Drawer-Non-Slip-Toolbox/dp/B07KB4FQ47/ref=pd_ci_mcx_mh_mcx_views_0?pd_rd_w=QZKFE&content-id=amzn1.sym.1bcf206d-941a-4dd9-9560-bdaa3c824953&pf_rd_p=1bcf206d-941a-4dd9-9560-bdaa3c824953&pf_rd_r=B02H9BCNCS907AEK3Y9Q&pd_rd_wg=N1Gsu&pd_rd_r=137d8181-860c-4ed7-bac2-27e95045a30f&pd_rd_i=B07KB4FQ47&th=1  

He had a 60ft roll but this link is to a 6ftx16" role that will work perfectly.  All you need to do is some trimming here and there, use some double sided tape and everything will stay put!!  And I'm still not done....I'm going to find some webbing to install on the front of the storage unit so I can put bug spray, window cleaner, tire pressure gauge, etc etc in it that will be easily accessible and not take up room in the actual unit.  There's plenty of room from where it sits under the seats to add more stuff well organized and easy to get at.  Here's a couple of pics from this evening.  Like I said, the liner looks like crap, so don't judge.  Need more double sided tape....lol...
