What do you use?

[RonP]

Just wondering, What do you use the slot in the dash,above the ashtray for??
Seem it is not practical for anything? Pens will fly out when you brake or turn. So if you found a good use for it, let us know........

A tin of mints.
A handheld voice recorder (I tend to get ideas while driving, so I keep my recorder there).

tridents
cigs
and wallet, on occasion

My cell phone fits there, and my pager (yeah I know, but my company still requires us to carry pagers!) It is a very slim opening.

I did remove the metal ashtray liner and use that hole for stuff

The one thing i wish the Gen had was a few more cubbies for small things...my lil ole Civic had 7 compartments to toss candies, change, etc.

I store my company badge in there. I have to show it to security at the gate when I arrive at work.

I also removed the metal cigarette Patton of the ash tray, great for storing change no rattles.

The slot holds my cell phone which is attached by a loop to the car key which also fit next to it. I like the slot.

I think I could fashion a holder to fit in there that would hold some extra CD's

But i have a 16GB memory stick in the USB slot so I really have a lot of music capabilities. I try and only have Audio DVD's in the changer the top Lexicon system is awesome. Still hoping to buy a NAV-TV unit someday so I can fill it with Videos. Then I could really use a DVD holder in that slot.

Small leather coin holder, no rattles. Ashtray holds gas card.

 

[wallymn]

Badge for the office, my wallet...

 

[lysykon]

radar detector would be best

I was thinking about a concealed radar detector, of the kind with sensors behind the grille. But I am not sure it can be installed there...

I put my EZ-Pass toll tag in there rather than velcroing it to the windshield. It doesn't work down there, but it's no trouble holding it up as I pass through the booth when I happen to use the toll road.

good idea

 

[crupp]

good idea

I do the same thing here in Atl. Mine toll pass is of thestick on variety and a little bit bigger than a credit card. The slot works perfectly for that.

meanderthal, LOVE your signature!

I store my company badge in there. I have to show it to security at the gate when I arrive at work.

And the "floor" of this cubby is rubberized, so the stuff doesn't slip out. I also keep my I-pass there sometimes.

what slot?...the little slot bout the size of a matchbox is for your key fobe.....oops I just went into the garage to check out the slot, after looking I think I know which slot you refer to. I keep my cash there

Nothing, its not covered and I hate anything in plain view. IMO the one interior flaw in the Genny is lack of storage space. Also, on Non-Tech cars no sunglass holder, well, sucks!

Where the hell does everyone put there loose change?!?!?!?!

I have a little leather zippered pouch that fits under the lid next to the cigarette lighter. Got it at Walgreens or something like that.

Ashtray.

Ashtray.

Ditto. That works for me as well and fairly easy to get to.
