<<fists up ready to fend the non-smokers off of mwebb (see thread titled smoking)>>i don't smoke in my vibe, still smells new after over 2 yrs!but, if you must, rolling the window down is your best option to avoid an ashy mess. also, don't roll down the back window while you do so because the ashes can and will go right back in.

Well, I haven't had a smoke in about a month now...., and I tried not to smoke in the Vibe, but when I did, I kept a used Coke bottle with a little water, or coke backwash in it to snuff the butts out. I know it sounds gross, but I don't agree with tossing a lit (removed) out the window, the (removed) is extinguished in the bottle with the water and sealed up so it doesn't stink up the car like an overflowing ashtray will.It looks gross, so I kept it under the seat when not in use.I also installed a set of ventvisors which are great for flicking your ash out the window (not the (removed), but the ash), especially when it's raining. I always kept the window cracked open which evacuates the smoke all the better.Can you tell I like to smoke? I quit last year for about about a month, but started up again. I've quit this time for about a month again, but I think I can do it for good this time. I hope.

Or you didn't pony up the dough for the "smoker's package"?I really don't think there's a place in the Vibe to "install" one. Maybe in the little sunglass holder compartment area to the left of the steering wheel, but then it's not really accessible for the passenger.The other option is the compartment underneath the shifter.I don't smoke so, my ashtray (which was standard equipment on the '03) is a candy dish.

Ashtray??And to think all this time I've been using it to hold my money for the turnpike. I figured the designers thought two coin holders weren't enough and thought to give us all a LARGE coin holder.Got mine for free since I've got the 2003 model, it's actually quite handy.Ok...so I did know it was supposed to be an ashtray, but I don't smoke so I gotta do something with it.

Ash Tray for Vibes

Post by de387 »

There is a black ash tray that goes in one of the cup holders. It has a lid on it to close it. They are available from Pontiac. I was going to get one just to keep change and misc stuff in, but have not got around to it yet. I *think* they are pictured on the Pontiac Vib Web Site. I am sure Pontiac has them in stock and I'd bet they do not cost much.Jeff

Also the 12V outlet has a light up ring around it. Without the smoker's package the 12V outlet has a black cover that closes when you're not using it.
