ashtray replacement
yes, i'm fully aware of the many ashtray threads on here, and i looked at them and bought parts references in them, specifically in this one, but i still have follow up questions.
a few weeks ago i forgot to lock my car and a nice person taught me a lesson by going through it and kindly removing my ashtray holder with a bunch of coins in it.
i don't smoke but i would like to re-populate my coin collection so i found the above mentioned thread and bought the little rubber "no smoking" thingy... except now when i put it into the ashtray it looks out of place. the opening left by the ashtray has access to down below where i can unscrew something and the rubber mat thing still has these exposed. i'm afraid that if i do put coins in there with high bumps they're going to fly all over and end up inside of my car somewhere.
did i need to buy another piece for there into which the rubber thing would go? or is the rubber thing just not as fully encapsulating of the area as the ashtray?

you need to purchase a ashtray if you no longer have it. Then do what I did. Remove the top cover and line the inside then put trim on the top. It will hold all the change you want to put in it.
