As for change, I just use my pocket or the card holder above the stereo.
Oh yeah, card holder. I always forget that damn thing is there.
As for my pockets, I tend to have more change on the floor after keeping them in my pockets. It always tends to slide out and fall between the cracks of the seats.

This is a very straighforward mod, nothing iffy about it. It fits perfectly. The hardest part was that the bolts that hold the 'O-sh*t' bars on are very long and take many turns before they are on or off.
One hour max!

That and cramming your hand into the newly freed open area to loosen the rear set of bolts on those handles is a pain, not much room to work. But harder yet is getting them back in if you, like me, removed them entirely (probably not needed and not reccomended either). However, if you do remove them please be VERY careful putting them back in or, again like me, you may drop one and it'll fall behind the rest of the trim pieces and essentially be lost forever. But, even though that screw is now missing, my handles are just as sturdy and there's no sign of loosness at all.

Now if we could only figure out a classy way of getting a 12v adapter closer to the dash. Only having one under the arm rest makes it a bit hard for some devices like a radar detector.
You could mount one to the side of the center console tunnel. Should be quite easy to run +12v from the existing outlet.

The only thing I used the ashtray for was change, and it actually worked really well for it. Now I use the new bigger space for change and my garage opener. The chagne kinda just slides aorund in there but it's not loud since it's rubberized. I really wish there was a better place for change, what do other people use to hold theirs?
I actually put my change in the recessed area under the arm rest with the power outlets. When I close the sliding door over it I can't hear it rattling around. Of course, ever since Coca-Cola started putting Full Throttle in the machines, my silver change doesn't last too long! I just have a heap of pennies in the car right now!

Not to sound stupid (too late), but have they removed the ashtray on the 2009 model? I just purchase one and I do not have an ashtray north of the gearshift... hopefully this is normal now.
