    My fellow manual tranny's... :wink:

    The auto trans folk seem to have a little more space than we do in front of their shifter.

    So the question is: What's in your storage cubby thingy in front of your stick?

    I currently have my brake controller mounted in there and it's basically stuffed now... thinking I might change some things around. There was more room there in my '08 than there is in my '13... kinda bummed about it.

    Generic interweb pics of the area I'm talking about:

    I thought about mounting the face plate to the ham radio I've been sizing up in there but it won't even fit that. *sigh

    I am not a tranny named Manuel!

    I just have junk in mine. Not really sure what else to do with it. Better than the useless cup holders the autos have I suppose.

    I'm envious of you guys. My OCD cannot and will not allow loose items to roll around anywhere.

    Do you have a holster made to secure the glock? Or just lay it in there?

    What other interesting things have you guys done with that space? Pics?

    I have a blackhawk holster that fits decent. But generally i stand it barrel into the cubby on the drivers side.

    The cubby fits nicely and the pistol stays in place in all directions except to the right, but i throw my wallet in there too and it makes a little pocket for quick draw if neccesary.

    If i remember i will get a picture up.
