I like this idea of lockable table. How do?

Theres secret compartments just under your
driver+passenger seat. You can use a sawz-all and cut
out the blocking sheetmetal just behind your
calves/feet erea.
Build a stealth latch door with carpet covering it and
you have a perfect place to hide a laptop. Too bad I
dont own a laptop. Or you can access this area from
your battery bay but your battery is bocking the way.
I think the compartment is like 3" tall.
