i have the boomerang and i like it. easy to instal and has decent amt of storage and comes with a cd case as well.

 

Go with the Boomerang. I like that it has somewhere to keep spare change handy and hidden...

 

Found a good deal on the Boomerang on Ebay. Going to run with this one

Got teh "Rang. Installed though I set it ON the carpet and not under. I just think it looks better. Not sure of the difference will be.
I am satisfied with this unit. Got it at a fair price on Ebay and it does what i need it to do. Next project is to find a cupholder for the back

If you want storage and an arm rest the best thing to do is make your own. I made mine and it has storage all the way down to the floor. It's made of 1/4 inch plywood covered in black felt like material. Works/looks great and only cost about 25 bucks to make.

 

Do you have any pictures? I looked in your profile and saw nothing.

 

Sorry no pics but here are the important outside dimension sizes. 17" tall in the rear but can be adjusted once you find out how tall overall you want according to your needs. 12" tall in the front. It's stepped because of the rear cupholder.
I made the lid 13" long by 4" wide. It hangs over 3" in the front but you don't have to do this. You can play with all the sizes according to what you want. It's hinged at the rear and covered either in same black felt or in my case, red vinyl material. But the lid and box gets covered after fully assmembled. This covers up the hinge
The box is 10" front to rear. 4" wide (between the seats).
The part that touches the floor is 5"X 4" and 5" deep so the console clears the cupholder.
I mounted it to the center hump using long self drilling screws through the bottom wood piece into the steel hump. Doesn't move around or anything in 3 years.

 

"Next project is to find a cupholder for the back "

the OEM armrest had a cupholder on the back of it, i dont know if the boomerang did.

 

I won't need one cause like hardly anyone rides back there plus no drinks allowed inside box anyhow.
