- I installed the “2014-2020 Toyota Tundra Crewmax Plastic Rear Under Seat Storage Unit” from www.esptruck.com.
Here’s how it went!
I needed to make some minor modifications (cuts) to make the unit fit properly, but once that was done, I’m happy with the purchase and the final outcome! I’ve got some nice storage bins under my seat now!
Good space for tow straps and jumper cables, so you can pull fords and chevys out of the ditch😃
Exactly! :D
For such a big and roomy truck. Toyota should of ALREADY had this put it for the crewmax, just like the doublecab.
You laid out the template incorrectly. At 41 sec you did it right but you changed it.
I have a 2014 Tundra and it didn’t have under seat storage like my 2006 did.......I cannot believe for the price of these trucks that they still don’t have it!! I love my Tundra but come on Toyota.....get with the program, these are trucks--> we haul shit!!!
The crazy part is that my 2008 had space under the seats. No storage cubbies, but plenty of space. Now why would Toyota go backwards and take storage space away is baffling. Not only are you losing space, but you no longer have a flat floor!
Sacapuntas exactly
I know you probably have had a few comments about the placement but I will add that it was installed slightly too far rearward. I appreciate the video, I also have a 2020 CM and will be purchasing this very soon. It was great to see what the wire in the center bin position looks like, this will ease my install anxiety for sure. Thanks.
I appreciate your video A LOT! Just bought a 2020 TRD Pro and the same storage bin. The complications you ran into will keep me from making the same mistake. Obviously the manufacturer changed the template but didn't update the instructions for placement.
Thank you for showing us where the push button sensor is. I have a 2020 I bought the locking storage compartment this will help me out a lot to where it is, again thank you for the video it was awesome keep bringing those videos about 2020 installs I’ll be watching them.
I installed it by tilting the 1/2 moon side in first, not the back side first. I found that loosing the seat track bolts made it much easer to slip in.
hey!! i installed this same storage system years ago. you did a better cutting job than i..lol
The notch goes under the seat bracket. Have to loosen seat bolts and slide under.
I have a 2017 crew max and ordered the same one and i had to trim like u because they updated the template but not the tray cutouts but ended up liking it better because the tray sits backwards more and tucked in under the seats instead of poping out of under the seats wich I wouldn’t like
Thank you very much for the detailed and updated video for this box as I just purchased a ‘21 and your video was very informative - we have the same truck - thx again sir,
Crazy that a pick up truck don’t come with this. Expensive truck but you gotta cut out your own storage 🤣🤣🤣
Great job bro. Thanks
Having to modify a $225 plastic tray is BS
I didn't have to modify the tray. Not sure what we did differently to account for that. By the way, that $225 plastic tray is tough. Mine has held a selection of tools (sockets, wrenches, hammer, etc) for roughly five years without damage.
I highly recommend measuring several times and cut it once. Also, it really helps to take the carpet material and place it in the cutout areas where the storage system will sit in to help with noise dampening. Lastly, you want it to fit a little snug to the point where you have to tap it in with your fist. I have a 2018 Tundra and it came out great. I recommend watching the videos that the company has on line as well to help in the installation.
Let me know when you install it on a 2020 Tundra.
Commend the company for creating a solution for the Tundras. But if that's how it lines up, they need a redesign. $200 bucks and still have to modify for it to sit flush? Seems like a simple design flaw....
Totally... I think something changed w/ the 2020 Tundra and they didn't modify for it. I would have returned the tray, but I was already committed by the time I realized it didn't line up.
Might be easier to cut with a drywall knive
good job! very helpful.
This gonna be the first mod I made after I naps off the tundra.
Mine is farther forward in my 2015 and the template the provided had different alignment points. I’m assuming the realigned it due to the wiring on the 2020 pushing it back. I think they may have messed that template up because you should have to cut the plastic on the tray.
You did what you had to do and it turned out great regardless. Good job man!
Probably has to do with a 38 gallon underneath
@@jlg5798 they have had the 38 gallon tank option since 2016 so its not the tank. Its just how it was positioned and abit too far back under the seats.
Use a dry wall knife after you cut the carpet with a box cutter.
Well done! Thanks
Nice mod! 👍🏼
Ordered for my 21 Crewmaxx. Damn near $500 with the currency conversion ffs.
I need this!
The only downside I see is trucks with an aftermarket exhaust. May see increased noise in the cab with some of the foam removed. But it definitely is cool for storage.
You're correct about the exhaust sound, but I'm thinking a good thick sound mat might fix that.
Reinstall the insulation that’s cut and place it under the storage unit after adding piece of sound deadening material (Kilmat or other brand) underneath.
How about the noise?
Do you like it now that it is installed? Would you recommend? And, where did you get it?
Ron Hall I haven’t been driving much, but I like that it’s there. Right now I’ve just got jumper cables down there.
I have this one: www.esptruck.com/product-page/toyota-crewmax-rear-under-seat-storage-unit-1
My 2021 has storage
Awesome!
What is between the boxes? could someone make one large box underneath the seat?
I forget if there were any immovable obstructions. :/
nice job
I would like one of these storage bins but they are a complete rip-off costing 250 bucks for a 10 dollar plastic mold.
How did you get the box in without interfering with the wires in the middle. Did you reposition them or relocated them?
I didn’t have to disturb the sites (left them there), just had to be careful not to cut them during installation.
It’s not an issue. The depth of the middle box isn’t as deep as the two side storage boxes.
the storage its looks nice but the way to faxing no . destroying the OEM floor and in the end for what small box no sorry by the way i feel bad for your car
Buying several hook (velcro) backed nylon pouches would have been easier, less mess and not screwed with the integrity of the sound proofing.
Cool idea, you can do that to your truck.
But if you put anything in them you won't be able to put the seat down..thus why he had to do the storage bins
I’ve got jumper cables, a handful of tools, and a collapsible snow shovel under the seat with one bin empty.
@@_paulbrian I was directing that at P. Hightower. I'm planning on getting the same type (maybe not same company) bins that you installed for my 2020 Tundra....wish they were a little deeper though or 1 large bin all the way across. I've seen one like that but it requires removing some metal parts under the seat and I don't care to do that.
@@dalephillips8250 ah gotcha. Yeah one large bin and deeper would be nice, but I like it a lot better than nothing!
This is How to destroy the soundproofing of a Tundra for just a little storage
Just an FYI if anyone is concerned about this. I personally did not experience change in cabin noise after adding this storage.
I installed one in my 2017 Tundra Crewmax, no difference in cabin noise. I can store quite a bit, it’s more storage than one may think.
I would never buy something like this that requires cutting into so much I would just have someone professional to install storage
You have to remove the seats
where can i order that mod??
ESP truck accessories. Let me know if you need a promo code. 20 bucks off.
was it hard to do the chop?
@@noelperez641 also how much was it?
@@chinitrdjimenez6638
179.99 with promo code. Fast shipping to Orange County Ca.
Easy cut out out.
Promo code TNDRASDTCM
Hmm a lot of noise deading insulation that just got cut away..I think for the work and the effort and the price and to loose that sound deading material maybe storage box in the truck bed might be a better path. If you drive around with ton of space in truck bed that is the path I would take.
Just another view on the matter
No fucking would I cut that on a brand truck. Get a toolbox for the back or find another product.
