    Looking into the ESP Underseat storage but would like to use the entire length vs 3 compartments. Question: is there any under the areas that you don't cut out in between the compartments? If not, I was thinking about looking for a full length bin, cutting out the floor to drop in the full length bin. Anyone tried this?

    From what I understand, you can't because of the seat brackets underneath. I know several have asked for a full length and it can't be done, at least not the way they do it. I'm not trying to speak for them, but that's what I read. I have the plastic ESP and its awesome!

    ^^^What Wes said...I thought there was some sort of structural channel in between the openings. Why not ask the ESP folks if they make a full length. If not, why not? @havasubud

    The seat channel sounds right from when I last recall this coming up, or may be addressed somewhere in their video.

    Yes sir, the crewmax seats do fold up. It's definitely underneath. Stare at these things being built for about 8 hours a day.

    Old thread but the CrewMax at least has a full length storage bin with two doors. Nice stash spot
