The things to keep in the glovebox thread
The thread on common problelms and the the CPS recall got me thinking about what I keep in the glovebox for roadside fix'en. Remember guys these things need to fit in the glove box or consoul so no auto trannys and dual mass flywheels, LOL

1. Cam Sensor, AND cheapo 10MM socket wrench
2. Door light switch, RH and LH
3. Fuze box relay
4. 194 bulbs
5. Fuel filter

i keep my Glock 9mm in my center console for easy access.
always carry a CPS, box of fuses (of all kinds) various bulbs, electrical tape, some emergency cash, flashlight, needle nose pliers, phillips head/flat tip screw driver, tire gauge, hose clamps (one of each size), extra hitch pin, etc. My glove box is full
... but the times i need something out of there it has saved me a LOT of headache!

My .50 AE magnum won't fit in the glove box.....I don't think. Either way, I don't want my shiney Desert Eagle rattling around in the box. So for now I just stick to these.
Colone
Phone Charger
lighter
Owners manual
Strawberry smelling trees
bandaids
Everything else, I keep in my casket size toolbox.

I have been taking very carful notes. My glove box will have some of the things mentioned but not all, My 1911 45ACP stays on my belt and under my coat,(shirt, jacket,ect,ect) at all times.
