I like everythign about the xA better than our boxy brothers, except for the dash. The xB has so many more "cubbies" and bins and knock-outs... More room to mount custom gear, install controls etc.

What are we xA owner to do?

And what is everyone using the space we DO have for?

oldmanatee

We have space??? All I know is that little tray under the glove box that is too small for anything......

At least we get a decent sized tach.

Chops

Yeah I like all the little cubbies as well, but we have enough space to paint a nice mural on our dash.

I too wish that we the xA owner had more space, I want to see someone that knows what they are doing put some more holders ect. into that HUGE dash area.

I call the xB the tissue box lol. then my g/f keeps calling mine cute =( I guess she will one day learn that it is a manly car and not a "cute" car. that or i will realize that I drive a cute car.

ive had a few ideas for the dash in the xA, some friends thought a Magna-Doodle would be hot mounted behind the steering wheel, but could you imagine getting in an accident and having to explain that you were drawing


im not really into the super custom stuff, more the tuning, but if anyone ever fiberglasses the xA's dash, they should build in a 10" sub on the passenger side right on the dash facing forward, maybe even one on the driver side if it doesnt block the view too much


or just get out some linkin logs and build a log cabin with some cotton comming out of the chimnee for effect

I soo want to put a TV where that spot is with the airbag! too bad it would void my warrenty and insurance...

Well, I guess the space improvement is going to the 2007 xA (which I heard will be modeled after the Toyota Ractis). It looks rad.

Persocon

Ractis that sounds nasty but I want to move the small ___ speedo and tach infront of the steering wheel and put video screen in the old speedo and tach housing.

Hmm the airbag is in the steering wheel no? You can't mount anything on that big bare spot behind the wheel?

ractis is nasty

I'd rather have the xA's dash... Better gauges, cool lighted oven, and smoother design.

I can assure you every "cubby" on my xB dash is empty. Waste of space IMO. Whenever people see that gaping hole over my glove box they say, "What's missing right here?"

The little cubby in the xA is great for holding sunglasses.. thats about it.

so my sig other puts his there. My sunglasses sit in the cubby for my milage/gas etc.

No matter what I put in them, it's gonna rattle....

sakko

Yeah the "oven" in the xA is nice cause it has a felt type bottom to it, so stuff doesn't slide around or rattle :D

oldmanatee

It does????

I might just need to slow down around corners then....

I also just discovered that the xB front seats will fold back 180 degrees to create a "flat" cargo area. This would be really nice on the xA. Any ideas why we don't have this? (I thought the front seats were the same...)
