Default Grifter box

I bought a little thing called the grifter box. It mounts behind the license plate and has a little key lock. It's not incredibly secure because it's made out of plastic but it works great for storing documents and smaller items. Plus if I ever need to access the papers, I don't have to think about pulling the seat off on the side of the road.
