lockable Interior Storage Ideas

I am looking for some ideas. I am looking to store tools and a few odds and ends inside the truck. I want to be able to leave them overnight so it needs to be lockable. I already have a 36 inxh under mount toolbox mounted in between the rear passenger seats. It's a bit big and terribly unorganized.

Do you guys have any ideas on lockable storage?

I am in the process of designing a lockable drawer system to fit under my cover I built. Tuffy makes one but it runs about $1800 I think.

I am patterning it loosely after this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GaYrMPE9Td0

I like that idea but I hate losing the bed. It may become a necessary evil though. How are you keeping it water tight?
well right now I have 2 water tight rolling cases from Cabelas that I simply slide in and out. With the drawer system, I plan on making it detachable so that if I need to convert to use the full pickup bed I can in about 15 minutes. One of the big reasons I love the HMMWV platform is that it can be changed so quickly to fit any given scenario. If you are just looking for something to hold a few items, I bought a large Black water tight toolbox from HomeDepot that I bolted between the front seats in mine. makes for a nice lockable storage. My setup now has the custom console for storage of small items and drinks that I bolted to the radio shelf, a large toolbox between the front seats that I keep padlocked, and two lockable rolling boxes from Cabelas that I keep under the platform. all of it is removable in minutes. HMMWV and water tight aren't usually synonymous so I keep things in cases. IMG_4779.jpg
