    I bought these:
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01DVO7G7G/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    I bit the bullet and got the clear because it really helps to be able to see inside without opening the lid. These are better built than the general hardware, Home Depot, Costco type. One caution, they don't seal and hold water like a :bucket:. So keep that in mind or drill some holes:cool: I like these smaller ones because the larger ones get heavy quickly. I also got them because with my rubber bed mat they are just the right height for a platform to utilize the preform in the bed and eliminate the cross bed stays.

    It's pretty good. Some friends have mentioned how finish matches the truck bed. The only think I've noticed is light rust on the latches but after spraying them with a little wd40 they seem ok. They are thick and hold a padlock well. The other thing is that there are no rubber seals, so it's pretty tight but not as much as I would like. So I bought a rubber gasket at home depot (meant for doors) and it works fine. I think silicon would also work.

    Just bought this the other day from my local military surplus store. It's a surplus medical container. Got it for $80. It has a gasket and seems pretty indestructible. Cheaper than a Pelican and with a little more character. There were "legs" made to convert the top into a tabletop but I haven't been able to find any yet.
