That slot holds a buisness card pretty well, but thats about it. Any ideas what it actually is for or why its even there?

Also - I searched for "slot by the gear selector" and found this post before I asked the question in a new post. I'm sure that makes somebodys day. haha :fistbump:

on a more serious note, has anyone tied their under-tonneau LED strips to the cargo light circuit so one could technically light up the cargo bed via that button?

im conflicted if i want it tied to that circuit or be independent via the 12v system already provided within the bed itself
Tied my led lights to the factory bed light near the tailgate, driver side. Works fine there. I don't remember, but doesn't that light (actually just a cargo bed light) work with the actual cargo light system on the dash?

To hold cards, parking slips, etc. My Kia had the slot, but it was on the dash. I find it useful.
If anyone on here has ever dropped their debit card down between the seats after you leave the speaker but before you pay for the food....then you didn't need to ask what it was for. That's EXACTLY what Ford put this slot in for. Drive throughs and Debit/Cards. Put it there as you drive up...and put it there as you drive away so you don't fumble it putting it back into your wallet while being too excited about your Chick-Fil-A. LOL
