dont know if this was discussed already, and if so, i apologize (and please delete).

whats everyone else using this space for, and wondering if theres a better place for what i currently have there, as well as better things to put in there.

i have 2 pairs of sunglasses on top of a microfiber cleaning cloth in there. thats it.

I have an otter stuffed animal in there.. No judging! Also have my first responder badge, department of defense ID, Homeland security badge/ID, and my old iPhone used to sit in there, but the 6 plus falls out under hard acceleration.. and a lighter. Just if I want to set a building on fire, or need to kill all evidence of my car quickly.

EDIT: Wallet too

Uh... I'll just plead the 5th here... :p

But seriously, I have a USB phone charger plugged into the power port, an iphone cable, a logbook, a tire pressure gauge, a couple loose screws, and a pack of gum.

I keep a leatherman in the door pocket, and a tactical LED flashlight under the front seat between the seat mount and the rear edge of the rubber floor mat. I keep a pair of mechanics gloves on top of the spare tire, as well as the trailer hitch and a selection of bungee cords, racheting tie-downs, and a recovery strap.

All of those have come in handy for pulling people out of the snow, hauling loads, etc.

I don't have anything in the little cubby.
I keep a small flashlight, multi-tool, pocket knife, small first aid kit, phone charger, ipod cable and spare valve caps in the center console.
under the trunk flap i have booster cables, random tie-downs, a ratchet strap and a socket wrench for my winter wheels bc the one that comes with the jack doesn't fit inside the holes for the lug nuts

my personal vibrator that I use as a reward for myself after driving well... jk... :p
You sir are a sick ****. I knew I liked you.

Mine's pretty boring. Access port, air freshener, tire pressure guage, lotto ticket (I'll win one day and wipe my butt with $100 bills), wallet and chapstick.
Good to hear my AP found a good home! It never got to ride in the car when I had it. :(



I like my car clutter free. My small garage door opener lives there. Sometimes my sun glasses and wallet come to visit.

Two parking stubs, a gas receipt, safety glasses, and a work badge. My phone, when I'm driving. Can you count the USB charger? I have one plugged into the ... uh... socket (because do they even call them lighters anymore? or is it accessory port, what with smoking being taboo?), so sometimes the cables end up tucked away in the cubby.

Usually just my phone while its plugged in for CarPlay.. Until Pioneer releases an update to work with 8.3 for wireless... My sunglasses unless I'm wearing them, and have a scosche dual port USB charger in case I need to plug in my iPad or my work phone. I keep the cables under the armrest though, gotta keep that clean look ;)

MY wrx is new so I don't keep anything in the cubby hole yet but my other car has an ashtray (which I don't smoke) I collect some changes and put it there from tolls and 7-11 I leave it there until I can't close it and swap singles out for larger bills and I'll use that for emergency in case I forgot my wallet for fuel or tolls or lunch money. Every year I cleaned it out to get the toll receipt for tax season, I accumulate Over 100.00

the cubby is not as deep as i thought it was. ima just stick with my sunglasses in there. i hate having my ap plugged in with the cable dangling, so thats not going in there.

i do tho, need a new spot for my burts bees. i would like to derail this and get suggestions on where to put it. the little concave divot scoop thing for change was absolutely perfect in size and shape for my burts, but the sun bakes it to a melting point. so no dice.

wheres should it go?
