Well im wondering what all you guys recomend for security as far as when the top and possibly doors as well. I have the box under the front seats but cant find mutch more out there. Any help would be great
I normally just don't keep anything valuable in my jeep and if I do then it's locked in the console or glove box. But the cargo decks work great and the under seat options are also great. I am probably going to be doing a lock box under the driver seat eventually
Are any of the bolt on decks anygood for security?
I have the Tuffy security deck and the under seat drawer. That's about as safe as u can get topless/doorless.
Because I live right next to the border and have a soft top, I worry about my Jeep even with the doors on and top up. Also, seeing on this thread and other Jeep club's social media about stolen Jeeps, nice cars, etc. from hotel parking lots, I worried even more. I installed a Viper security system with a pager. I put in the motion detector sensors and tilt sensors, in addition to the regular sensors. (The system is crazy expensive, though! Especially if you have someone install.)
When traveling, I request an outside room with a view of the parking lot, and preferably ground floor, explaining I have a Jeep with a soft top. Most are really good about it, and I often have my Jeep right in front of my window. The alarm has a silent mode, so that the whole hotel is not being woken up every time the alarm goes off, but the pager works the same. I sleep with the remote and my gun under the pillow. If my pager goes off, I look out the window to see if anyone is near my Jeep. If it's windy or if birds take a dive to land on your top, though, it can be a PITA.
I have the tuffy deck as well, but was a little upset with myself not doing much research. I cant mount my arb fridge on it the way I wanted.
live and learn. I just have to rethink my thinking.
This is the newer Tuffy security deck. It's been working well for about two weeks. No rattles that I can hear. There is some loss of cargo room...but it is indeed secure. I also have the bestop drawer under my drivers seat.

While I'm sure someone with enough determination and time could get into both...they certainly keep things secure enough for me.
