Console Vault Truck Safe Finish
Each Console Vault is finished in the factory with an industrial grade, high-quality powder coat finish that looks like paint, but acts like armor. For those who are unfamiliar with the powder coating, it is basically a dry finishing process used to apply paint to metal surfaces.
The Console Vault is then placed into a curing oven and the covered with finely ground dry powder of colored pigment and resin.
While inside the oven, the Console Vault is&nbs p;electro-statically charged. This process causes the powder sprayed on the vault to melt and fuse into a solid coating on all of the vault's metal surfaces. The end result is a tough, good looking, scratch resistant finish.
Easy No-Drill Installation
Installation is done in 10 to15 minutes, using simple hand tools. This turn-key easy installation allows almost anyone who can turn a screwdriver to self install the Console Vault. Why pay a car dealer or other after-market installation company costly installation fees?

Once your replace the screws, the Console Vault is now securely mounted to your vehicle’s metal body. Below the factory plastic console tub, there is a steel mounting bracket with welded nut plates. These 2 screws (sometimes 4 depending on the vehicle) attach through this mounting bracket, providing plenty of security.
That’s it! In 10 to 15 minutes you now have security for your valuables.
The Dodge Console Vault is easily installed in approx 10 -15 mins. No special tools are needed, nor do you have to pay someone to install it. The following photographs show the Dodge Console Vault being installed in a 2008 Dodge Ram Quad Cab.

When you look inside your OEM tub you will see 4 screws, one in each corner. These are all you have to remove and replace. No drilling or modifications are required.

Simply use a phillips screwdriver to unscrew the OEM screw.
Once the screws are removed, your Dodge Console Vault is ready to install.

Once the Dodge Console Vault is slid into place, open to the vault door.

Once seated, your should be able to run your finger across the front of the exisiting OEM tub ridge and run it back across the front lip of the Dodge Console Vault.
The Console Vault should be flush, or a little bit lower of the front ridge of the OEM tub.
Once seated, you do not use the old OEM bolts (in the center). They are too short, and are to be replaced with the included bolts.
The existing OEM tub, along with your new Dodge Console Vault are secured to the frame of the truck, which is underneath the OEM tub.
