Anyone else order the console safe?

So I’m waiting like everyone else. I know about the spray in liner and tonneau cover problems but what about the console safe?  I ordered mine with the console safe. Are people having problems with those also or are there trucks coming in successfully with safes in them???

There’s a dealer selling the OEM safes on eBay for $280.  I looked at the instructions and it’s extremely easy to install (maybe 10-15 minutes).  I didn’t order mine with one, but I’m strongly considering adding it later.  I highly doubt it would cause you any delays.

I was honestly going to order it but thought I would lose a bunch of the center console storage by having it.  Only after I ordered my truck did I find out it doesn’t take away from the volume of storage in the console.  That’s when I saw the YouTube videos and of how easy it is to install. I’m probably going to order one once my truck gets here.

No idea of who does factory install but while DIY is a 1/5 difficulty at best, for the first time install expect to spend a minimum of one hour.  Been there.

The one I installed in my F-150 (and hope to re-install in my F-250 when delivered) only took half of the console area.  Looks like the factory version takes all the space.

 

Could you share your brand and model #.  I was planning to move mine before trade in but getting a half console sounds neat.

Not sure of the brand but this is it.  https://www.americantrucks.com/e-g-center-console-lock-vault-1517.html

 

They do not have one listed for 2022 SD's but I am hoping it will fit mine.  The cabs of the 2015 - 2020 F-150's and the 2017 -2022 SD's are supposed to be the same and the Console Vault unit proper part number is the same for the F-150 and F-250 with the exception that the F-250 has an SD suffix.  I may be disappointed but I will try the install and make any modifications to the safe itself if necessary.

I did but removed from my build.  I wanted a half safe as to not lose full function of space in console.
