volcomst0ne24 Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 where do you put change in the car? i cant seem to find a spot to put quarters and such? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyudra Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Not a clue... I got some kinda pad thing from japan that holds coins, cell phones, or whatever to it without going all over the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallispec Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 I've had to get out of the habit of keeping change in my car. At first i tried keeping it in the ashtray, that sucked though becuase it was impossible to get coins back out of easily. So now, when I do have change i'll drop it in the cup holder and then usually take it out when i remember to. I agree, kind of odd that thier is no coin holder in this car.

squirrel-bait Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 I used to use the ashtray, but the rattling was driving me crazy. Now I use the cupholder. The rubber pad at the bottom keeps the coins quiet. sqrl b8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSiWRX Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 I keep it in the dash cubby - I use one of those 3-hole spring-loaded change holders so things don't rattle around. <-- I love Winky, my "periwinkle" (ABP) LGT! - Allen / Usual Suspect "DumboRAT" / One of the Three Stooges '16 Outback, '16 WRX, 7th Subaru Family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rc0032 Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 I went to AutoZone and bought a $1.99 change holder and keep it in the armrest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallispec Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 i've got my XM radio in the cubby... so i cant really use it for anything else. I'm sure you can by a coin holder that fits in the center armrest --- i really don't have much i put in there. edit... heh, looks like rclark already had my idea.

Vahkil Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 I keep my change in the cupholder that is obstructed by my arm rest when it is extended. In my late 93' Honda Accord, it had a pull out drawer to the left of the steering wheel that was great for holding change. At any given time I must have had $7-10 in change in that drawer b/c I would always forget to grab a handful before going in to buy a drink or whatever. I once got rear-ended in that car. I was kind of dazed because my head hit the column and I was bleeding profusely. I stumbled out the car with about $1 in change falling to the ground. The inside of my car looked like someone put a stick of dynamite inside a piggy bank. The drawer had popped open and ejected all the change. I'm sure the people at the body shop were wondering what the hell happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smoss Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 I had this same problem with this car. So I took out the ashtray and lined it with adhesive felt, making sure not to block the window for the light to come through, and then put it back in the car. It's a bit of a pain to get the change out easily but not that bad. Also, I had a 92 accord with the same change drawer. It was awesome. It was high by the driver window and I found since it was directly below the air vent, it kept the change cool in summer and warm in winter. Don't know if that was done on purpose or not, but it was sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob_m Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 <-- EZ-Pass baby! Thanks to you guys, I would have never known the EZPASS would work while hiding in the cubby.

Cynder Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 I had a small rubbermaid container that fits perfectly in the cubby, glovebox or armrest. Great place for my change and I can move it to where I want it. It doesn't rattle when it's full. I do miss the change holder in my Mazda 6 (and the steering wheel audio controls)though. :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canis Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 I use the ashtray, but I only keep quarters in the car. The little metal thingy in the ashtray slides out for a little more room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYCdob Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 I rented a car last month and it had a spingloaded change holder so i borrowed that joint and velcro'ed it inside the armrest space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rony Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 I use a modified screw holder I found at a hardware store. It's the same size as a soda, so I cut it down and keep it in my cup holder. Works like a charm. My Car vBGarage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legacy2005 Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 all my change goes in the cup holder closest to the arm rest. i have the little rubber pad in the front cup holder so that any moisture from my drinks is collected on it. the rearward cup holder is kinda the all purpose area holds change my cell and lighter. Work hard. Play even harder. My Garage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agctr Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 Personally, I store it in the glovebox inside an old Camera Film container... Does the trick. Ada///M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIZARD Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 I use the ashtray + felt + sound-dampening foam spray (quarters only) to get rid of rattling change. My question is ... Does the EZ pass work at dunkin' donuts?? Stage2.5376, TDC ProTune,blah blah blahhhh and....Alky/H20 injection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
