Awesome thank you. I will definitely reach out to you if I decide to go that route.

One more advantage to doing rollers on both drawers...
-If you ever need to yank the drawers out even temporarily, or device anything in relation to them (or beneath them), it is so much easier with the roll too...because you don’t have to unscrew the floor pieces. Just pull the slide and the drawer...and you then have direct access to the true floor of your cargo compartment.

So if you get the pull out top, is that locked when the drawer is locked? If not, then locking the drawer seems pointless.
Many ask the question of whether it’s worth getting the roll-top version of ARB drawers...or just one...or none.
Here is one more reason I think it’s absolutely worth having both roller tops, even if no fridge:
After Costco-
Without roll-top access to heavy stuff:

With roll-top access to same stuff:

I know which way my aching back prefers.
PS. Also let’s you access extreme rear of drawers from the second row...meaning you don’t have to pull items out of the front of the drawers to grab something way in back.

Just ordered these today. After looking at this picture I'm wondering if the locks have any effect on the roll tops? In other words, can someone simply slide open the top and reach in despite the lower drawer being locked?
Thanks!

Yes. They lock the roll-tops...and prevent tops rolling via a lever you flip by reaching in/under when the drawer is open (unlocked).
But I do not consider them “high security.”
More a discouragement to wandering hands in a shop or camp of strangers, or kids who may not be safe fiddling with various gear.
Perfect! Just what I needed to know. Thank you.
I’m looking forward to the install. Have been combing through the forum and bookmarking drawer install threads. At least two noted the need for additional M10 x 60 mm bolts so I ordered those.
I’ll try to document my experience.
I know this was 14 years ago...but +100.The Exped Megamat is awesome. Almost like my pillowtop at home.
My question is whether anyone sleeps inside their ARB drawers.

Looks like the inside of my truck!
Old thread, but I wanted to say thank you to @Markuson and @cruiseroutfit and share my sleep set up at the same time. As our lives slim down, family spreads out, and time becomes short, having a concise set up to hit the road with that you can eat, sleep and explore from becomes golden. Kurt set me up with the full height and mid-height roller drawers a few years ago and I have had several weeks worth of easy camping out of the back of my 100. ARB drawers are a “buy once-cry once” sort of affair. Call me a fan boy, but they just work.

Glad it’s working for ya.
I have a question about anyone with the ARB drawers. Thread was already resurrected a couple of times, but I didn’t see this addressed.
Has anyone found a specific type of box or storage container that fits where the 2nd row seats would be? I have my 2nd row removed. I know some other drawer manufacturers offer an “extension” box that fills the 2nd row space - I know Goose Gear has one, as does Trekk Box. I believe both offer the option for either one side or the full second row. I’m more interested in a unit that can be removed.
Before I started simply searching the web for storage boxes, I thought I’d see if any of you had already found an option that fits well.
