OK, so the main objective was to secure the box best as possible with minimal OEM alteration. I wanted to be able to remove box and reinstall rear seat and maintain stock tub with no drilling or thru bolting requiring dropping fuel tank and welding nuts. Once finished, I realized cosmetically it doesn't look half-bad. Basically mounted 3/4 solid plank using existing Jeep tie downs brackets, bolt holes, then mounted box to plywood.Covered with original exisitng OEM carpet. Dual cable locks for added security. Snagged a cheap WRANGLER decal from Amazon as a finishing touch. Looks much better than I planned!

That RIGID orange really pops for sure.
Long term plan is to paint box to match Jeep color (with automotive, not spray paint). I plan on repainting jeep one day as there are quite a few scratches along sides and front fenders have been repainted at some point in its life. Color doesnt quite match. I saw a Sahara painted OEM beige but with flat finish. Looked really nice. I may do the same.
