Lol, ok i was hungry on my way home from work, and i noticed that the pocket nicely contored to my fry box, matched the curve in the box and everything

That does fit in quite nicely!

that's a great way to use the space. conveniently in reach for on the fry shifting. sorry, that was a bad pun

I'm gonna use it to install my XM radio...

am i the only one who can't get that compartment to stay shut!? i close it and it falls right back open 10 seconds later!

Ketchup fits nicely in your pocket. Added Bonus! when you get out you'll have a red stain on your leg and you can watch people scream "HE'S BEEN SHOT, CALL AN AMBULANCE!!"Fixing the compartment to make it stay shut is an easy procedure, you can use velcro or window insulation tape on the bottom part of it and it provides enough extra height for it to stay securely shut. (There are some more specific how-to's on this subject)(Who says you can't bring something back from the dead? Just look what I did with the post )

isn't that what the compartment to the left is for? (under the trunk glass release)

I need to wear glasses when I drive (darn computers). And that compartment is the perfect size and a very handy location.

I found I needed to use a needle nose pliers to change a fuse in the under dash fuse block, which is a real pain. Since I never used that compartment for anything, I keep the pliers in there in case I need to change a fuse again.

post its and pens...

I put the cell phones in there. If not the cell phones then my bf's case for his glasses. Fries are a good idea though - I usually put them in the little area below the cup holders.

I often find myself forgetting to shave in the morning so I keep an extra razor and shaving cream in there for when I get to work or class.

Do you just wipe the shaving cream off with a towell in the car or something? Or walk in looking like Santa Claus until you can wash it off?

i have my huge sunglass case in it. i have a pair of oakleys so they are big. fits nicely along w/ a pen.

Dude, I don't shave in the car, just bring the stuff with me inside and use the facilities wherever I may be. Hmm Santa Claus, might try that someday

LOL! That does make more sense. I was trying to envision you shaving with shaving cream in the car (And trying NOT to envision you driving over potholes/speedbumps while doing so )

Pens, sharpie (for recording milage on the gas reciept), and my Oakleys live in there..

Actually, I keep my electric razor in mine for when I'm running late to work....too many times!

Quote, originally posted by VibeGt6speed » the dealer replaced mine works perfect nowI had the same problem. It would pop open going over bumps. I just put a drop of glue on the locking notch to artificially raise the reach of the notch a couple of millimeters. Not having problems any more.

I keep the face plate to my head unit. people who ride with me see me get it out of there and a re like "I didn't even know that compartment existed"... they've been riding with me for over a yr! that way you don't have to worry about putting it in the case and then your pocket and all that crap... no one's going to steal a radio with no faceplate, and their not going to be searching the car for it either!
