Good morning Jeepers!

Hope everyone had a good NYE and was able to hit a trail, or at least drive through a big puddle.

What are we putting in the empty center console area? You know, the area under the window buttons where Sway Bar and Aux switches sit if you have a Rubi....

It's not wide enough for my phone to go without hitting the shifter, and other than a tiny trash spot, I don't really know what else to do with it? Seems like a waste of space if you don't have the offroad buttons there.

I wanted to put the head of my 2m/440 amateur radio in there but that opening is just a tad too small. Right now t'aint nuthin in that otherwise useless space. Hoping to see some good ideas.

I've a seat belt cutter stowed in the horizontal cubby behind the two gear levers. Think of a slightly larger letter opener.

The space is too small, and imperfectly accessible, to be more than just modestly useful.

I have some spare change and a mini leatherman.

I just traded up to a Rubicon, but in my Sahara it was the absolute perfect width for my wallet, so that's what usually was riding in there

I just picked one up off of FreeCycle today. Hope it fits.

This works well for me.
Same here. Usually has a phone or spare mag on drivers side. Pass side will have a phone or charging cord. Also good for a couple of snacks.
