I bought a truck chest from Northern, it's supposed to be 36"W x 18"H, but it's
more like 19", combined w/ my bed liner and mat makes it too tall to fit under
the existing soft cover (it's sort of under it now, but it's bulged up, and I'm
sure it'll ruin the cover if I leave it long enough)...

The reason I got the smaller chest was to avoid losing the soft cover... if I
have to lose the soft cover, there's no point in not buying a full size
cross-rail box...

I'm toying w/ the idea of cutting the mat, or just pulling it all together in
the hopes that it'll buy me an extra 1/2" to 1"...

My pass floor & seat are full of tools & other assorted junk, so I need some
type of secure storage pronto...

Suggestions? :) Should I exchange the box for a cross-rail and dump the
softcover, or should I try something else?
