Toyota Highlander Center Console Car Safe: 2020 - 2025

Awesome product. This is my third one. My first was in a 13 Ram 1500, second in my 17 Ram 2500 Power Wagon, and now added to my Highlander. I did dock one star due to the instructions. The instructions missed one part. When I had to initially put it in the console, the instructions said to tilt the front down into the console and then open the safe to flip it over. I tried and tried to turn it over, and ended up bending the spring on the rear piece of the vault flap. If you fold that piece all the way in, it flips with ease. The instructions need to be updated for that. The picture shows it completely flat. I also went with the 4-digit combination lock. I bought another one to upgrade the vault in my Ram. I much prefer the bigger 4-digit combination. The lock spinning was unexpected, but I will get used to it. I did not have to trim anything like the other reviews mention. I did remove the Qi Wireless charger. I need to finish removing the part with the spring on it. It wouldn't charge my phone anyways and was in the way. I would recommend this safe.

Be patient on installation for highlanders

I had read another review on Highlander vault and the need to grind a little bit to make it fit. This was spot on, so thank you Anita as I could not get it installed for the life of me without a Dremel. I reread directions 10x over and over and maneuvered it all kinds of ways but to no avail. It is the swing portion of the top piece will not swing upward due to hitting the plastic on each side. Be patient, I took 2-3 hours just to make sure. I used a Dremel to shave it in two places (one each side). It was surgical, precise and deliberate. I looked to see exactly where it was hitting and then shave a little of the plastic. Be very careful, maybe you won't need to but for the Highlander like mine, you might need to. Again, be careful. That said, almost have it a four star, but I was so otherwise pleased with it because it is very snug and secure and it is hidden. I did not want an exterior vault and this is exactly what I was looking for. Read and reread the directions. They are concise but deliberate. It is tricky to get this vault into the console because it is snug but it can be done. Be patient as it is snug and you will be very happy with results after you take your time to install. If you have a Highlander, you may need to Dremel a very small amount in to small locations. Do not assume you have to because it could be the console tolerances and you don't want to Dremel and then find out, you did it in wrong location or too much and then the vault is loose and then it is too late. I would say that if it doesn't fit , then contact the company first because once you Dremel there is no going back. That is why I too my time and several hours to install, I wanted to make sure. This was my experience, maybe other Highlander owners will not have issue, I don't know. Otherwise, this is an awesome vault and looks very professional. It looks original and very secure. Awesome vault!
