Creative Ideas for Dash Cubby Storage

[Dbarr]

Still waiting on my order but the dealer had a few ecoboost in stock. My wallet fits great in the side storage which is great for my sciatic nerve on the road.

I made a plywood block to fit inside the cubby, to adapt a RAM mount for a smartphone & tablet holder. I shaped & tapered the block accordingly, slightly undersize, and sealed it with epoxy finishing resin. I gave the block a couple of wraps of electrical tape before jamming it in there. Seems to hold well. I like the idea of having my phone, which I use for Android Auto, to be up where I can see it and easily get to it.

This is the RAM tablet holder:

The RAM X-grip phone mount:

And what the block looks like:

Hey man, this is super cool, I love it! Can you make more of these? I would be happy to buy a wood block to fill this space so I can attach my own phone mount, etc. Let me know if I can Venmo you or find you on Etsy.

I've recently been contemplating compass for this

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

Any third party accessories available?

I plan on keeping USB cables in there. Then when the family is in the vehicle, I can pass them out.

I think I'll use it to store my stack of Bitcoins.

Do you go off-roading? I've never really found a use for a compass in a vehicle. I'm curious how you would use it.

I would use it about like the rest of the nonsense on this thread... To look cool.

Actually....I think I'm going to put a single nixie tube clock in there.

Not into making more. I didn't even take measurements really, or make a drawing. I just made a paper template to capture the taper. It was a fun quick woodworking project. That would be a good 3D printing project to design and make an exact fit RAM mount mounting block to fit in there.

The werthers pic is so random it hurts

Used to make so many inappropriate jokes about this commercial. I should be ashamed...

Maybe a small bong, and for later a package of ding dongs slide in beside.

Looks perfect size for a one hitter
