i put my phone charger in there. I kinda of like that little spot. Gives yah another storage spot for something, instead of having a crowded glove box.

Hey, that's a good idea! I guess cell phones can do this now, but most cell phones still take worse pics than your cheapo disposable. And the disposables come with a flash.

I never really thought of using it, it was just there. Now after reading this, I have got some ideas....I always kept my cell phone in the cupholders and I kept my loose change in that little storage slot under the climate controls and above the cupholders, that little slot is perfect for change, when you make a hard turn, all the coins line up

I've thought of moving my cell phone charger from the glove box to the compartment but I'm afraid if it starts bouncing off the plastic over bumps it's going to make noise...maybe I'll test it out on the way to work tomorrow.

I can fit my cell phone and little Canon SD300 digicam in there. It's the perfect place.
