Yes, there is a company on ebay that sells them. Classic parts carries them also.

If you need the links, let me know. I'll look it up when I get to my laptop...

Shipping is high on these, guess it's the large akward size.

I think a tool tray (store bought or homemade) is a better idea. I made one out of oak/oak plywood and made my own speaker boxes. The plastic store bought ones did not have the right size compartments for my purposes.

Yea I agree $75 is a lot of money for cardboard, this is what I bought for mine. Very similar to what tucsonjwt did.

I like that last store bought one, except it does not have a full width shelf on top, which was a requirement for me to safely carry a long level in a padded cubby. Also, if you have gun, especially a long gun, I don't see where you would put it. Maybe I will come up with a good storage box with a rifle compartment "hidden" behind a discreet hinged and locked plywood door.

A little notch for the barrel and a long gun will fit.
