Useless cubby hole

[Capri to ST]

fixed it for you..

Good job, it is useless. When I first saw it, I thought it would be a good place for my sunglasses, but of course it's at least 2" smaller than the case, there's no way to fit it in there.

Dumbest engineering ever! Worthless!

I told my appt ice that was the oh sh*t handle location, as a result of side curtain airbags. It got the most puzzled 90 second stare.

I have a pack of gum in the spot, works for me, but, I certainly see the useless argument as well.

I'm going to put a strip of grippy tape inside. Might help hold things better.

I would like a nice filler trim piece for the hole above the glove box. Brushed aluminum or carbon fiber. Could even have a cutout logo and let the ambient light shine through.

I'm working on a design for a 3D printed part that will fit in that cubby hole.

It'll be a pull-out drawer that fits snug inside and flush, with the ST logo on the front. I'm also thinking of making a coin-holder insert/ variation to the design.

I'll post back here later once the design is being finalized let you guys know incase anyone is interested. I'm also interested to hear other ideas for how to utilize that space.

I’d like to see a coin holder, or just a pocket that snaps in and sticks out

I am not sure that a coin holder is necessary.
In my area, there no pay phones any longer.
All parking meters take ATM cards.
Toll roads take more change than you can carry or only take on-line passes.
And hookers charge more than a quarter nowadays.

I need it to hold my quarter for Aldi's. I also like to have enough quarters to use a air pump, or vacuum if necessary. As soon as he makes one I'm buying it.

Sounds cool, I'd be in for one.

Let's just make it bigger?

Honestly just a simple lid on a hinge so I can put change, gum, lighter, etc. in so it stays secure would be fine with me.

Something like this would be fine for me too as long as it can be closed.

Lol! And yet cars still come with cigarette lighter sockets..! True, but there are still some uses for coins depending on lifestyle. I try to still use cash for smaller transactions myself. (Not a fan of the parasitic drain of credit card transaction fees.)

Very interesting solution [MENTION=4006]WhiteST[/MENTION] , did you CNC that? Any plans to use Shapeways like you did for that sweet shifter bezel you designed?

Yeah good ideas. I'm thinking how to incorporate a door that'll hinge.

That is just a 3D print from my resin printer. You can see I ran out of green and added black haha. Just a prototype, I have no plans producing anything in the near future.
It would be great to 3D scan this area, the cubby has so many organic curves and draft angles. Good luck on your design!

this. Bingo

 

[chudzikb]

certainly interested, depending upon what you create.
