...in the glove box. I didn't notice it until now.

Any other things anyone else has found?

My salesman put a pen in my pen holder. That is what they do when you overpay!

How long have you had your car? You're just noticing that now?
Every time I buy a new car I live in it for the first couple days (playing with everything in it or on it and reading the manual). Nothing like having someone get in your brand new Luxury car saying "what is that?" and you saying "I have no frickin idea". My wife is pissed because I put my Mont Blanc in the pen holder. She called me a frickin idiot. Looks great though

It doesn't seem to work except for 2 quarters. Any more or anything else and they fall out when you close the glove box.
I like to keep my insurance card and registration in the card holder.

Very handy when you've got a chocolate bar or soft drink in there. Nobody likes a melted Kit Kat...

Is it by just turning the AC on or is there a mode you have to put the AC in?

Yes. So an iPod (or any electronics device plugged into the 12V) doesn't overheat.

If you look under the top left of the glove box you'll see a slim knob with a white flow indicator. Just turn it when your A/C is on.

I know I'm resurrecting a really really old thread but I did my searching and this is the best I could find. I figure that there is a pen holder and is that card holder in the center? For two cards?

Also like mentioned earlier the coin holder on the left. If that is what it really is. It only does two quarters on top. Anyone figure out what the rest is for?

My dad always told me never to leave anything with your address in your car. In nyc, there was a news story that somebody got their car stolen, they found their address in the car. Used garage door opener, and then robbed their house!! I always put those documents in my wallet

90% of people put their Insurance Card and Registration in their glove box. The insurance card has your address on it. if a car thief steals your car. all they have to do is look in the glove box for the insurance card/any mail. POP there goes where you live. Then juss press garage door opener (which i say alot of people have in their car 24/7). BAM! they get access to your house. Steal your tv and your car in the same night.
