What do you put in the dash compartment? - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

My previous gas reciept, a rescue knife, and a rock

I keep a usb with emergency driving music if I'm out in the mountains and dont have any reception. Also a tiny leatherman knife.

I checked mine right now...had a "new car smell" air freshener & stamps :p

I set my phone in there (LG Phoenix) while I'm driving. It doesn't fit perfectly, but it stays put well enough. I'm planning on getting a new phone soon though, and whatever I get will most likely be bigger than my current phone, so I'm not really sure what, if anything, I'll put in there then...

I build and sell illuminated toggle switch inserts for them for people who need controls for their aftermarket doohickeys. I make both LHD and RHD versions for both push-start and non push-start vehicles

I've mainly been selling them through Twin-related Facebook groups on... Facebook. Just having people PM me and taking payment via PayPal. If you're interested in knowing more about them, you can PM me here too

I put a single-DIN radio there ( no CD player, it's stubby enough to fit) and ditched the cubby entirely. Now I've got a double-DIN space up top where the factory radio was to do whatever. Right now it's slated to be gauge space

Are you able to wire the switches to control separate functions within the 86Nanny (ie have one switch put it in pedal dance mode and another switch to disable tpms separately)? I just got one of @Stang70Fastback 's switch blocks and am planning to get an 86Nanny hooked up to it down the line.

You can ask the guy who makes the nannies to wire the toggle switches almost any way you want. The default is two switches, I asked for three (separate abs off from pedal dance).

Those A/C control knobs are nice, where did you get them from?
