Creative Ideas for Dash Cubby Storage

[2020 GT500]

How about a plaque with the Ford designer name who came up with the design? That way we all get to see the persons name every time we get in and then laugh out loud at how dumb this is? And, don’t even get me started on the dumb-half handles we are supposed to grab to close the doors. Extra super dumb and annoying. Ahhhhhhhh….I feel better now. Bitch session for today now over

Where to put my garage door opener? Hay, look at that empty little cubby box. Hum, I wonder if my garage door opener will fit in there. Well look at that, it does. But wait a minute, how am I going to prevent it from sliding around and falling out. Let's see now, hum, how about removing the visor clip and do a little velcro job here. I'd like to place it so it would not be recognizable. How about velcroing it to the top of the cubby. Hay, that worked. Now I just need something to guard the opener. I know, Yoda would be great at that. This is what I ended up with.

Anyone have any creative ideas for using the screen's odd side storage?

Any third party accessories available?

Coffee dispenser, remote control death ray in case you get carjacked, Oreo cookie holder.

Heres what I made from scrap .020" thick stainless steel sheet at my job. I bent and glued it together with JB weld, then primed and painted it. I removed the rubber insert, and installed this. I used velcro loop to pad it, and to add a Wile E Coyote figurine to it with velcro hook on him. And a handy slot for my work parking pass. On top is the other Wile E Coyote from my friend Dan. Actually both were gifted to me by him.

Or better yet, a plaque with the name of the accountant that nixed the full size Sync 4 screen and system.

Would be fun to be able to make a replica of this that would fit in the cubby (you'd have to change the aspect ratio so it's not as tall and skinny).
But I'd want to be able to touch the red eye and have it say
"I'm sorry Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that"

I keep my garage door opener there because the visors are too thick

The cubby is just there to keep the screen ratio about right without installing a full-on iPad screen that would probably require Sync 4 which would somehow jack the price of the truck without providing any actual benefit.

Of course someone on Etsy found a solution. There are little drawers to use an an garbage pail, little boxes for change. Great ideas. Love my "drawer" to fit in the cubby

After searching for a HAL(my Mav's name) replica I found one and glued it to a plain cubby storage slider. I get lots of positive comments! Check out etsy or ebay.
