    I just purchased my truck, and apparently the PO did because they are still in there along with about 8 replacement lenses haha. I may keep beef jerky in there, seems like a better option..

    I originally used it for my sunglasses, but then I discovered my sunglasses/case fit perfectly in the cubby below the HVAC panel. My survival knife has now found a new home! :quickdraw:

    I use the front one for my survival knife. The rear one I open it and my iPhone 4 w the Incipio case fits perfectly in between the top and bottom of the holder. So my kids can watch movies on a long drive.

    I keep an extra set in both! That way when I leave my primary set at the house, and my secondary set at my desk at work, I always have back up. Lol

    Nothing much. I haven't been bitten by the mod bug. A little plasti dip. And a set of Wet Okole seat covers with gun pouch.
    That's where I put the little plastic wrench for taking off the antenna

    My wife keeps a pair of sunglasses in every vehicle--in the sunglasses holders--duh! She finds them quite useful.

    As an aside: We also have an early production 2010 Lexus RX350, which was built before Lexus took away the sunglasses holder to make room for the Entune garbage/junk. Many posters on the RX forum I visit would much rather have the sunglasses holder on their newer RX trucks, since they don't have one.
