If you want secure storage you can actually take with you, this portable headrest safe gives you both. The removable interior safe slides out when needed, locks in place when installed, and still fits a full-size pistol without taking up much space.
When you're making quick stops where certain items can't come inside, leaving valuables loose in the cabin or tucked into the usual spots creates a problem before you even lock the door. This headrest safe gives you hidden storage with a removable slide-out safe that unlocks from the housing, slides out, and can be carried when needed. The safe locks in place while installed and is TSA compliant for travel and air transport, giving you a fixed storage spot in the vehicle plus a portable safe when the situation calls for it. You can secure your item during the stop, then pull the safe and bring it with you instead of leaving everything behind in the vehicle.
Electronic locks are convenient until a fingerprint read misses, a battery runs low, or you need another access method that works the same way every time. This safe gives you biometric access, keypad entry, and hard key override access, with the biometric system running on two AAA batteries (not included). That gives you quick fingerprint entry when conditions are right, code access when you don't want to rely on the reader, and a physical key as the mechanical backup. During repeated stops, you have more than one way to open the safe and keep using the same storage location without depending on a single entry method.
A portable box sitting somewhere in the vehicle can shift, get moved, or become the next obvious thing to grab once someone finds it. The seat-locking mechanism secures this safe while installed, and the heavy-duty steel construction uses an 18-gauge body with a 16-gauge door around the storage compartment. Once it's mounted, the safe has a defined place in the cabin and the removable inner safe stays locked into the headrest housing until it's intentionally released. Your valuables go back into the same secured location after each stop instead of sliding around the vehicle or ending up in a different hiding spot every time.
Short-term vehicle storage works best when the compartment is sized for the important item, not so large that it becomes a loose catch-all. The interior safe measures 6" tall x 3-1/4" wide x 7-1/2" long and fits a full-size pistol, with padded interior lining to reduce movement and rattling during travel. It also gives you a defined place for cash, passports, medications, jewelry, or electronics when those are the items you need to secure. The cabin stays clear of loose valuables, and the items inside ride in a padded compartment instead of bouncing around while you drive.
Replacing one headrest with a storage safe can draw attention if the front seats suddenly look like they came from different interiors. This bundle includes a companion headrest, and the cloth-style exterior uses a black vinyl material that resembles fabric. That gives the safe side and the other front seat a more coordinated look, even when the removable safe is out of the housing. From outside the vehicle, the front seats continue to look like they belong together, and the storage location draws less attention through the windows.

Hi, everyone. Steve here with etrailer. Let's take a look at the Headrest Safe slide out car safe in a nice black color. So folks, if you're constantly traveling with valuables in your vehicle, maybe even a pistol, one of the biggest concerns is keeping those items secure without making it obvious that there's something worth stealing inside the car, right So what do we do We put stuff under the seat, the center console, even the glove compartment. And quite frankly, if someone's gonna bust through your windshield, or your windows, rather, and get inside, they're gonna be able to bust into those kind of things too, right So that's where the Headrest Safe comes into play. This is a bundle, you get two headrests, although one of them only is a safe, and that's gonna be traditionally your passenger side.
So the idea is you're sitting in your driver's side seat, right You're sitting over here, you're reaching over to be able to then access the safe, quick and easy. So here is what we're looking at, folks. So again, easy door that closes and opens, and then you have your safe. So you can get in here three different ways. You can take the two little set screws off if the battery's ever died.
And behind this knob is the hidden key entry point. You can program this when you get it to do a key pin number, or you can simply use biometrics and then pop it open just like that. So pretty neat, right So this is about 7 1/2 deep inside of there. With this particular model, you can slide out the actual inside part, the safe part itself. So again, 7 1/2 inches, 6 inches tall, and about 3 1/2, 3 1/4, rather, on the inside.
And that is padded in the backside there, way in the back there is foam that fits the barrel of your pistol. And then of course, whenever it's time to go back inside with it, you can just simply slide it in, lock it back up with the push of the button there for the biometrics, and you're good to go. So on the bottom side, we got a couple of things going on, these arms, these bars, can come in or out. They are movable depending on what your footprint of your old headrest is, you just basically match it up to that, center it and everything obviously, and then you're good to go. Besides that, you do have, again, a set of keys to get inside there in the event of a battery that died or something.
You're also getting one of these spring-loaded keepers, and basically you'll thread this into the bottom of one of the bars here on the safe one. And then when you push that down inside the hole of your headrest, that's gonna spring out preventing people from pulling this out if they we inchesre ever to, you know, figure out that there was a safe there in the first place. I don't think they'll figure it out personally. And that's what's neat about this product is it's hidden and concealed. You're also gonna get a pack, each headrest comes with a pack of five, you know, two for each one, so 10 of these total. Depending on the size of the space you may have when you take out your old one and put the new ones in, so you have those spacers to fill any kind of gaps and just make it look cleaner on the overall install. So again, folks, pretty neat little design on the Headrest Safes here. Again, you can pop it out whenever you want to and just slide it out and take it with you on the go. Whether you're putting in a pistol, cash, jewelry, passports, important documents, whatever it may be, this is a great option for you. Again, this is in what they're calling their cloth black color. We do carry these in multiple colors. You can check them all separately here at etrailer. That's gonna wrap up our time together. I'm Steven. Thanks for watching.
