Interior Gear Security

[SSG]

So I live in Seattle, WA and property crime is rampant, leaving anything in your vehicle will more than likely get you a smashed window. Lots of people here leave doors unlocked and vehicles empty.

As far as I know there is no luggage compartment cover for the 100 series, I have not found one.

I would like to be able to keep at least recovery gear, tools, first aid kit, and my go-bag/bug-out bag in my LC and be able to have it preferably secured, or at least out of sight, or it will just get snagged with the bonus of a smashed window.

I have been thinking of a lockable rooftop storage option.

Any suggestions or ideas is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Not a ton of storage, but recovery gear and BOB could fit

I have the SS1. Product Details. I didn't buy it for the purpose of security, but it definitely accomplishes that too when you store your gear below it. It would also keep all my gear from flying around in the event of a crash or roll.

What about this as an option? You retain the boot platform for carrying loads and everything is locked away. This is my vehicle, and I am building the wings with underneath storage to maximize room.

Both great ideas.

Ah yes that lockable drawer system would work great and is what I am leaning towards plust that storage in the tailgate.

In my 80 I have the ARB drawers that I always have locked. To dissuade the average person I leave an inside out diaper and an old dirty rag on top of them. I've had both for years and use it often. Once I get the drawers for my 100, I'm guessing I'll do the same.

My gear bags are small and easily transportable from vehicle to house.
If you keep them in the house and then put them in the truck when you need them you'll be fine.
That's what I would do and I think that is your cheapest and easiest option.

Leaving the third row in with the seatbacks up hides bags pretty well. That's probably your cheapest solution.

Install a set of KISS drawers from Landshark Outfitters: good quality, reasonable price and hides your stuff well.
