Keep mine in the loft of my garage. Only other place is your boot(trunk) or the bin as Tiggerfink recommends!

Mine is (still) in the original packaging. Has never been opened. Was stuck in an armoire in a guest room of my house. It will remain there exactly as it is until the day comes when I sell the car.

You guys are doing better than me. At least you know where yours are. I usually don'e keep track of useless items.

It's Useless!

It's a useless item on the car, that's one they should have taken out for sure and left some other items in the car.

I'm glad I came across this thread, I put mine on becuase I thought I was being too uptight abuot not liking the way it looks.

Now I have to run out there and take it off before it mars my rollbar!!!!
