deletion of two storage trays for fitment of new clock
Happy they didn't do that in MY10

[Umai Naa!!]

I'm not. I'm a bit over digging coins out of them for customers!

I use mine for business cards and Coffee card.
The cubbyhole on the right side lower dash is great for carwash coins

I've never used mine - I recently opened each to make sure they still functioned, but I don't think I've ever put anything in there.

I leave my packet of mints in there . Analogue clock is a little 'off' for me..

I'm glad you guys have found more appropriate uses for the storage trays

Use one for parking slips (for expense claims) other for petrol vouchers from the supermarket. Right side flip out holder great for sunglasses.
Agree that its silly to replace with clock, but passengers do complain that they can't see the time on mine as in the instrument panel.

There is an option to display the time on your touch screen in the centre console.

If not, ask them to wear a watch! LOL!

I keep a set of Rosary Beads in my left one for Grandma on long trips... the poor old thing has Alzheimers something shocking, along with a bunch of other things... best and cheapest ICE solution ever if you ask me!

I use mine for city/east link toll tags. Works when in the drawer and open.
