Does anyone have pictures of the rear seat lock? I think it’s located outboard on the top of the rear seats. Love to see an up close picture of those locks. And does anyone know if they lock the seats when they are in the up(vertical) position or if they only lock when in the down(horizontal) position? I read somewhere that they lock in the vertical position to help you secure things stored behind the seats. But what can you actually store behind the seats? I know there is the Bluetooth speaker that you can remove from the truck. And I have seen a mesh screen on the drivers side. Don’t know what the bulky thing in the middle is. Is that the box for the bolts that get removed for when you take the doors and top off? I thought that box was to go somewhere under the rear seat, not behind the rear seat. Pictures and clarification appreciated folks.

The bulky thing is a subwoofer. The seats lock in the upright position as you stated. I don't have a picture because I am to lazy to get a screen shot, but if you use youtube and watch almost any of the "Gladiator First Look" videos they almost all show a small cylinder lock on the top of the seats.

A good helping of interior photos can be found on the forum here. The storage container for the door/top/windshield hardware is under the driver side rear seat and the center box as Homerun mentioned is the subwoofer that comes with the upgraded stereo. The Bluetooth speaker is an option so if that check box is not ticked I would reason to assume the space on the passenger side rear will mirror the mesh pocket or the like. Should have a decent amount of space behind the seats to store smaller items.
