Question Chrome holder in Glove box

Does anyone know what the Chrome door that folds out in the glove box is for? This is on my Coupe in the front of the box. It's padded inside I thought maybe for sunglasses?

Cool thanks. It's amazing what you can find when your searching for your security pass at 5:30 am in the dark.

Young I think you have experience with this issue. :p

I had a pair of sunglasses go missing for about 6 months. A couple of weeks ago, I was cleaning out my govebox and saw the 'silver door'. Who would have guessed, there were my sunglasses. I guess my wife put them in there, I have no idea.

Thumbs up If there's anyone out there who is as stupid as I am,

there's a "c class" MB pen that fits in there perfectly, and looks great.
Gee, I wonder why I can't get out of debt.

I never would have seen that door until you guys pointed it out! Oh well, I usually leave my Revo's in the slot under the radio for easy access. I like that idea about the hidden credit card, or another pair of glasses, etc, etc...

Under the center armrest (in the top portion) is what appears to be a few slots for credit cards/parking passes. I've never used it, no one will give me any credit.

i can see how it could be interpreted in such a manner :p

for those that don't know, i got my creditcard sized parking card stuck under the air vent under the passenger seat... and i was trying to write a proustian paragraph on it.
