What stops a thief from just unbolting the bolts from the bottom?

I was thinking that you'd need some special kind of nut on the bottom - like those special lug nuts for wheels (not sure of bolt size) but regular nuts seem to be a weak link in installing these types of safes in trucks.
All you need is lock nuts on the inside of the box and use large diameter fender washers for added strength under the floorboard and in the box if it is not made of very thick metal. Here's mine.



Here's how it works:

You could sideways under a rear seat as well but this was the best place for my vehicle since I wanted to have access from the driver's seat.
