A major problem with truck ownership is not having anywhere secure to store valuables or firearms. This is a two-part project. In video one, I will show a DIY modification that will transform the space behind the rear seat of a Toyota Tacoma into lockable / secure storage. In video two, I will show how to replace the factory plastic storage with plywood backing to create a surface to mount firearms or other gear.

Some may find the wiring part of this project intimidating. Don’t sweat it. You can do this! Take it slow and follow the wire diagrams. This is a challenging project but the reward is having a huge space to store valuables out of reach of thieves.
A special thanks to Spartan Gun Mounts for providing the gun mounts for this mod. They are an American company with Made in America Products. Check out the link below for their web site.

For bad guys that do it right, they'd just take the truck.... It's the meth heads that this mod will help out with... They used to be called "Racoons".... folks that only stole what was shiny... Nice project my friend

This is what I've been looking for. I was hoping you hollow out some of the back seat for more storage. How would you deal with humidity?

My back window actuator it mounted off center and pops out 1” past the center brace bar that I’m supposed to mount the plywood on. Any suggestions?

Any chance you could pin the dimensions of the plywood to the top.of the comments?

How far up did you mount the guns so the seat will still close?

I did watch your part one and thought of 2 things that would simplify the process. First would be to mount a barrel lock cover/shield over the release handle to protect the release lever; which would negate all the solenoid installation and wiring. (Extremely manual) Second possible mod is to mount the AR (to the back wall you've built) via a mag well locking system (similar to what law enforcement uses) At the same time, I would also recommend a drivers side mount, instead of the passenger side for quicker deployment from the drivers seat. By the way, your install was excellent. I'm just offering up easier ways for the "Not so mechanically inclined" like myself.

What is the barrel lock cover/shield mentioned in this comment? Google doesn’t understand what that is and neither do I. A link or a picture would be great. Thank you for the DYI on this. There’s lots of prefab options out there but most viable ones are pricy.

How do you secure or lock the rear seat?
@jonblanke6196

This has been great and informative. Doing some modifications of my own. Wanting to know what thickness of plywood you started out with for the backboard.
@ufixit
@ufixit 3 года назад
I used 1/2” plywood. Its very ridged and secure. I think 3/4” would be overkill and 1/4” would be too thin to securely attach mounts, etc.

How is the noise level while driving? I removed the plastic storage behind the seats and it sounds like all the doors are not completely shut. (wind/road noises)
@ufixit
@ufixit 3 года назад
The wood deadens the noise back to or below where it was with the plastic inserts. You could probably put some insulation behind it and quiet it more.

How well does the ar-15 mount hold up with the bouncing of the truck? Thanks
@ufixit
@ufixit 3 года назад
It is surprisingly stable. I'm not off road racing or extreme 4-wheeling. For highway and light off-road use, it works well.

I’m looking to do the same thing, but probably with the traditional lock and key where the pull handles are, then flip the seats down, instead of the motor. I also thought about using a steel sheet instead of plywood to help in the long term. Any advice? Thanks for the idea
@ufixit
@ufixit 2 года назад
Manual locks will simplify things a lot. Some aluminum diamond plate would look good. You will love the extra space.

@ufixit

I appreciate the offer but its not something I do. I enjoy tinkering and making things for myself. Doing it for others turns it into work.
