zalusky Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 It's been discussed about the odd well shape of the armrest storage. I am curious as to how people have used or enhanced theirs to make it useful. I thought about some sort of shelf sort of option to like a coin tray on top with something below. Anybody have any better ideas? What else do you store in there? In my previous car I had stuff like:Glasses cleaning clothDental FlossSmall FlashlightReading glasses I put the reading glasses in a case and in the driver door pouch. I am thinking one of those cup shaped change holder might be the trick but I would want it to fit in the door well. Anybody tried it?

PWBarrett Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 I was also thinking of finding a small stick-on LED light to put in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurel Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 I use it like my purse--everything gets dumped down the well and then I wind up pulling everything out to find a quarter for a shopping cart. I plan on looking at the dollar store for some storage ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tdefny Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 Just nervous about putting metal in there with the power port uncovered. Otherwise, the car really needs a place for loose change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StoBro2 Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 I bought an Energizer key chain LED light at PepBoys and used some double stick tape to attach it to the inside of the bin just below where the lid hits it. The angle of the LED aims the light just where I need it to illuminate the space. So far, all I have in there is my ipod and its cord. I did discover that there is a small circular recess in the floor that I assume is meant for a water bottle or something similar. I also discovered that the rubbery bottom is removable for cleaning. http://www.energizer.com/flashlights-lighting/flashlights/keychain/Pages/high-tech-led-keychain-light.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoutsNC Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 I bought one of those safety flashlights a while back and put it in the slot to the left of the driver's seat. With the glass hammer, seatbelt cutter, and flashing LED's, I feel that it's a good option to have around and it fits nicely in that spot too. In the center console, I have a lint roller, Aleve, and a few other items just thrown in there. I wish they had put a coin holder in there. You would think they could have found a spot for it in that space :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
