I think I would buy some heavy duty self tapping screws and just drive them in from the inside. You are supposed to install the console, mark the location, take the console back out, drill, and then bolt it down.

It doesn't seem like there is anything on the market that works with the budget console that some of us got with the stock X package (no storage compartment, just cup holders.) I'm assuming this product is made solely for the center console with a storage compartment, does anyone know for sure?

How is the clearance for your arm and elbow with a manual transmission? I find that when I shift, my elbow and forearm sort of slide across the top of the lid now, so if there is a height increase, I'm worried that I would hit the pad with each shift to 2nd, 4th and 6th gear, or have to change my arm position, which would be unnatural. Anyone have the manual with this Tuffy product? I really like this, but the height could be a deal breaker for me.

Hmm...I thought we all had the console. I assumed it was standard.

The only thing that makes me not want to buy these tuffy things is I feel like if somebody does get into my jeep, and sees these consoles, they'll probably do a good amount of damage trying to get them out.
I also feel like it almost invites people into your jeep when they see steel security boxes!

It really doesnt look too much like a steel security box. There are many times when I run into the store, the gym, a restaurant, etc. and I dont want to take everything of value with me. It would take a lot of time consuming work to get into this thing. Enough I hope to deter the thief and send him to an easier target.

I had a Tuffy security console in my TJ and that thing was bulletproof. Trust me, these things are worth every penny! They leave you with a great peace of mind when you have your Jeep configured open.
