I don't have a coin tray.

But I just use the little tray with the door in front of the cup holders. Works fine for me.

Ive heard some people refer to that tray as a cell phone holder of sorts... but I dunno about that.

I do know what I did with mine... I installed a lock. I keep marijuana and condoms in it.

I use that little holder with the door as a cell phone holder, it works perfectly for mine. No coin holder though

right. there is a recessed part in front of the bulb to protect it from getting hit by stuff. it's not a coin holder, but it's your car do what you want

I love the two piece armrest. I have CDs and such in the bottom and the top is a great place for my sunglasses. My digital camera is in there right now too... just incase I come across a good photo op somewhere... ;)

I use it for both my cellphone and coins

I wouldnt put any weed in there though -.- seems kinda obvious if a cop pulls you over and you have a lock on it...

How did you put a lock on it? You got a pic of your setup in use?

I have a small pack of tissues, a coin holder and anti-bacterial hand gel in that litte space. I have pennies in a plastic bag and well as a lanyard I use to hold my police ID in that little hole below the shifter. I have a bottle of lotion in the upper arm rest so that when my female friends ask for it they can use it. Then I usually say, "it rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again."

That usually creeps them out.

It's sad that I thought of the South Park episode where Cartman was saying that before I thought of Silence of the Lambs...

yall must have really small cell phones. my cell phone doesnt fit in there unless i leave the little door open, but it looks ugly that way. I only put my coins in there, and i keep my cell phone in the cup holder.

Ditto pretty much all of that. I usually keep a pack of gum or something in the little cubby hole by the lighter too.

I wish the tC had an actual coin tray like most Toyotas, but oh well.

It's a cell phone holder. Several members have already had it get jammed shut from shoving coins in it.

My dealership showed me the cell phone holder before I drove off in the car... Doesn't every dealership explain the features of a vehicle before releasing it?
