Default Console Vault

I just installed Ford's Console Vault in my front center console. Its really solid; fit and finish was perfect, and it's an easy 10 minute install. Got a great price at Heller Ford Parts online through their eBay store ($280).

Now all I need is a Glock to go with it.

I do out of state paddling trips. So for me and what I use mine for it is awesome.

I have a small (1.4 + or -) round doughnut magnet on top of the lid with 1$ bills under it for tolls (or is that trolls (I go in some weird places)).

Open the main console and pull one or three dollars right off the lid, works well. A cheap Amazon coin holder that I put on a self stick metallic self sticking circle plate that sticks to a double gun holder magnet on the side of the vault. Holds a lot of quarters, dimes, and nickel's.

Open the vault door and I have a magnetic ball and socket phone mount in the center of the inside lid, with a Zebra (brand name) AA light that stays on top of the side of the lid on another magnet, that I can mount to see what is in there. Yes there is quite a bit of room (yea I know subjective) from the top of the vault to the bottom of the console lid..

A double gun magnet in the front, low holds an Officers 45 without leather or a P238 with nylon holster if you wish, a Glock with no holster would be no problem either. All are out of sight if you just opened and looked from the seat..

A full size I pad fits with the life proof case installed.

I like it, but as with all safes, (can not steal my toys) I would not put my beating heart in it. This takes a lot longer and not the average screw driver opening thieve will get your toys. Maybe the time they spend on it (if you catch them in the act) will allow you to call the police, or politely ask them to quit tearing up your truck!
