Joint. Stash?

Just kidding.

Wallet( during long trips), mail box & house key.

Sunglasses, Hanging Permit Pass, I-Pass (Can't bring myself to put it on the windshield, haha)

mrbrett · 08-19-2014, 02:38 AM

I've had my car for five days now. Didn't know that was there! Perfect for my sunglasses. I was keeping them in the cup holder now there is a perfect place for them!

BenWM · 08-19-2014, 03:03 AM

My sunnies don't fit either. Mine live in the door storage. That compartment is good for absolutely nothing. It's too deep and not high enough. For the time being, it will remain empty.

HX_Guy · 08-19-2014, 03:32 AM

I've had my car for over a month and I had no idea this compartment is there...I still don't know as I've been away from home for 2 weeks and can't check! So all U.S. cars have this?

If you've got the small EZ pass remove the sticker and plasti dip it. Did mine it's virtually invisible up there now.

Yea I did similar. Took the sicker off, sprayed mine black and then with a black sharpy wrote the tag number on both sides (barely see it) just in case i need it. Put the sticker in the files for safe keeping.
Now its blends with the rear view mirror and black head liner.

Yeah I keep a photo of the sticker on my phone just in case. If you put a thin strip of black 3m double back tape on top and left edge only and mount to right of mirror the black on the windshield hides it. Cleanest look IMO.

Mmm it was some what funny. But i don't understand the F22 correlation. What does that mean? Maybe thats why didn't find it as funny

overcoil · 08-19-2014, 10:42 AM

If it weren't for this forum would never have known there was an interior trunk release button.

Ok now i see how you would need that bag flying around in that. I wonder why they didn't have a photo of the F22 raptor in the advert with the M235i. I think it would have helped get teh understanding across.

Thanks for eplaining
