I miss the cubby holes in the dash of my 05. All I have now is a big console area. I found a plastic box(baby wipes) that helps keep the console a little neater but I still need a way to keep my gum, 9mm clip, pen, paper pad, etc. I would like something that I could mount on the dash maybe. What do you do?? Thanks....Rich

Given the size of the BIG CONSOLE, you might consider a clip with larger ammo since the space will accomodate that very well, thankyou! Oh, and you'd still have room for the laptop, PDA, a small dog, whatever..............;)

Coming from a Ford with lots of space, I am also pretty disappointed with the storage space. I think the lower trim level dash has more storage; at least it has two glove boxes. One thing that I did was to take out the cup holder and rotate is 180 degrees and place it back in so that there is a space on both sides of it. I keep my wallet and other stuff in the smaller space and have the bigger space open for the Ipod or cell or whatever. I think that a double stack 9 clip would fit fine in the smaller space. You can see what I'm talking about in my garage.

A cool place to stash a 9 is under the cup holders.Just grab them and pull up on it,also a great place to hide money.Maybe I should keep this info to myself....:rolleyes::rolleyes:

It's funny you say that, yesterday I pulled mine out just to see what is under there. I was also wondering what I could fit in there...

Same spot mine sits.

Dont hate on ammo choice... would you like to be the testing victim to see if both 9mm and .45 are both effective? I think I can accomplish very similar results :D
