This was brought up by some someone in the Tesla forums when I asked. Console Vaults aren’t fully enclosed. Possibility they don’t qualify under letter of the law according to ca doj. That being said, I’m using them in both the Tesla and Tacoma when I have to leave my ccw behind.
Per CA DOJ:
Pursuant to California Penal Code section 25610, a United States citizen over 18 years of age who is not prohibited from firearm possession, and who resides or is temporarily in California, may transport by motor vehicle any handgun provided it is unloaded and locked in the vehicle’s trunk or in a locked container. Furthermore, the handgun must be carried directly to or from any motor vehicle for any lawful purpose and, while being carried must be contained within a locked container.
Pursuant to California Penal Code section 16850, the term "locked container" means a secure container that is fully enclosed and locked by a padlock, key lock, combination lock, or similar locking device. This includes the trunk of a motor vehicle, but does not include the utility or glove compartment.
