Useless cubby-hole thingy centre of dashboard - what do you put in yours?

Me - my sunglasses only - won't take much else

I would like to replace it with a 3 guage binacle but she won't have it

Any other suggestions?

 

Sunglasses in mine too - at least they don't rattle.

I used to put a horribly scored big end bearing in mine to remind me to check the oil

 

Sunglasses inside, radar detector lead rests on the outside.

 

Mobile phone... That way you can pretend you didn't hear it....

"I use these for smuggling. Never thought I'd be smuggling myself in them" or something

 

nothing at all . Why? well mine is a MY94 and therefore does not have the cubby hole

sorry, could not resist!

Petrol receipts, had thought about the three guage thing but after investigation found that you can't by gauges small enough.

Had thought about a nice bespoke turbo timer install. Been told its feasable with a nice piece of Carbon or brushed aluminum.

I've got mine converted as a very small oven to keep the doner warm 'till I get home

 

Yup, only usually the 'Shades go in mine...

However, the catch on it rattles...I'm going to have a go at fixing it with some felt around the lower part.

I fancied the three guage answer, but the housing alone costs enough...Let alone a fortune for each guage!!

Not sure whats in there, but it's always something that rattles, gets on my **** it does .

3 Guages in mine

Boost, Oil Pressure and Temp.

they were a dealer fit option when I bought the car earlier this year in Holland. To really rub it in they were £140 fitted !

 

£140...Oiveh!!! My life, already...!

Uk Bloody rip-off merchants. (Sigh).

 

I also keep my sunglasses in the centre cubby-hole (in their case, on a grippa-map to stop 'em rattling).

Does everyone else find that they get mega-hot in the summer - the metal frames are almost impossible to wear when you first get them out?

What a man keeps in his cubby hole is his own private buisness. It'd make your hair curl if I revealed what I kept in mine.

Remember Compo and his matchbox? There you go then

Hi all

Shades & Gum & Petrol Receipts (lots of 'em ) and I know it sounds daft but the front of the radio ... oh and the "free" face wipes from Beachdales last time it was serviced

I agree! Too hot!

I also put parking tickets in there to forget about them (I hate stray bits of paper in the cabin ).
