Before I read anything, I clicked the eject husband and was like, "Why are the hazards on?" *Facepalm* I'm not even 30 yet. Thanks for making me feel old lol 😂
Dear, you did the "feel old" all by yourself :) Just sayin.;)

For real my Shelby Maverick in my profile pic had a Cobra right there in the middle of the dash like that! Wish I had a pic of it. Wish I still had it!

So, rather than using a larger infotainment screen Ford decided to put that awkward cubbie next to it for ??? (storage, meds, snacks, ?). For lack of a better use I decided to fabricate a spacer to fill the gap so that I can attached a cell phone mount to it. Here is what I have so far. It seems to fit well (a pain to make since its an awkward shape that is larger at the front than at the rear). I painted the front matte black to fit in and covered the sides with black electrical tape to soften the wood a bit. It seems to stay in nicely and does not show any signs of falling out. I'll update more when I get the cell phone mount installed. Clearly, I have too much time on my hands....

I'm working on one like that too. I noticed today that the bottom piece with the lip pops out too

Oh, and the "faux" CD slot underneath. Did we really need a faux CD slot to make some of us feel old as dirt since CD players are a thing of the past in cars... Except Subarus of course; some still have them. My wife just bought a new one and it still has a CD player. Haaaa...
I was hoping for a CD player so now I'm stuck burning all my CD's to the laptop and copying them to USB's

I bought some Powerball lottery tickets on an impulse a few weeks ago and stashed them in the cubby…..of course I didn’t win :confused:

Think that’s been my only use of the cubby so far.

Dude, that's awesome!! I wish I had thought to make one. I saw the 3D printable ones on Etsy and bought one for $30. I would have rather made one for $0 with the scrap wood lying around my garage.

I would have made it without a top, so it could hold stuff like change or "emergency" money (maybe that's version 2.0 for you :) ), but yours looks great!

I got the cubby insert from and the 17mm FITS ball from RefinedTruck on Etsy. Fits well, looks & works nice.

Man, if that is the quality of items that can be sold on Etsy then I need to get into the game, those layers are large.

Do you mind linking to the one you ordered? I'm gonna print my own, I just want to see what other people are doing.

I stash a small microfiber cloth in there to clean the screen after munchies on the road.

I'm thinking about adding tweeters in the cubby for speaker upgrade. Any thoughts?​
