Found some storage!!

Anyone else notice the little space just to the right of your glovebox?
Swing the door all the way down, and bend out the stopping tabs
allowing the door to drop all the way. There is space for the manual
there without using valuable glovebox space. Was this where the manual originally was?
I found it by accident, and thought it was pretty cool.

When you work on vehicles for a living you find all sorts of interesting places that people hide and store things
I've found bags of pot in behind gloveboxes a few times. An unopened condom inside a seat, slinky panties in behind a glovebox etc etc.
The funniest though was a stack of loveletters that were sent back and forth between a married man and his married girlfriend in behind a trim panel in the back of his wife's Windstar. We thought that maybe he lost the letters and would appreciate us finding them and leaving them on the seat
We chickened out though.
lol

We found some weed also in a customer's Ranger. It was in the passenger side a-pillar. Ironically, it was brought in for a wind noise from passenger window. You think he would have known we would find it.

These posts remind me of that old SNL skit with the hippie kids, "Dude, you can hide your weed in there......"
