    the original plan was to build the floor like you were talking about right behind the front seats, after looking closer, i realized the floor isnt even there, there is a random hump behind the drivers seat, and i also want my passenger side seat to be able to recline during road trips and hauling anything over 4 ft.... and it wouldnt with the false floor there, so its going to sit where the back seats used to, the box is small enough that it will leave me about 3 ft of cargo room behind it still, then create a smaller storage area in the footwell for the back seats.. im getting impatient so chances are ill be putting it in here in a couple of minutes, so ill take some photos

    i did it i did it! they are night pics and its not actually secured down yet (will use the stock cargo hooks to mount to).. but you get the idea.. it fits!







    btw, i stapeled a small strip on the bottom, then sprayed the side of the box and the carpet, let them get tacky, stretched it over, rolled it, then moved to the top, then the other side, then stapeled a small strip on the bottom again (bottom isnt carpeted so i can fab the mounts to sit on the cargo hooks), made for nice tight carpet and no staples visible, the only other place there are staples is along the inside edge of the storage compartment because its a really tight fit (to prevent rattling) and dont want the carpet pulling up or down
