ash tray ideas?
Has anybody done anything creative with their ash trays?
I don't smoke and a change holder is pretty lame and so is a missing hole in my dash.

I use mine to put "possibles" in. Lighter, fire starter, aleve, pepto, para cord, headlamp, super glue etc. Looking forward to see how others use theirs.

I keep fuses in mine. LMC sells a cup holder that replaces the ash tray.

I gotta figure out what to do with my ashtray hole, as i won't be using mine either. I've already mounted my gauges elsewhere so I need to figure out what to put there.

Hmmm... coinholder/cashholder/lighter just in case I need to start a fire/old gum wrappers/a vicodin or two from shoulder surgery/allen wrench for steering wheel/and probably a hair tie-tie from wife or daughters.

Reps sent for all the great ideas.
Some folks have put a small CB in there, but who uses a CB these days....
I like the derringer idea, but hard to get to quick. And that's not a way to be when you need one quick.

I use it to hold a fishing license. It's incredible how often emergency fishing and drinking trips crop up.
