Finally found a good use for the cubby below and to the left of the steering wheel.

So I recently replaced my headlight lamps (with regular Osram halogens) and my reverse lamps with some high output leds. It has been brought up in previous led posts that the high output reverse lamps could burn out on a long back up down a trail, so I figured I would throw the old ones in the truck, just in case. I decided for poops and chuckles to see if I could stash my old, but still good headlamps in too and sure enough they all fit in that formerly un-used little cubby below and to the left of the steering wheel that doubles as a fuse box cover. The lamps are wrapped up more carefully than shown in the pictures. Here are some pics, and also the before/after reverse lights. They aren’t bright like the sun, but still better than the incandescents

 

I usually just keep my wallet there but this works too!

 

I use it to hold the key to my trailer and the plug if I need to pull it to get the water out.

 

I keep my chew in there.

 

I keep a $20 bill in there for emergencies.

 

Put a switch for my extra fog lights!

 

I had that pocket in my gayrolla. Way more useful than the 3g cubby.

 

Yup... thats the 'tobacco tray'...

I don’t keep anything in there, cause my old ass will forget it’s there.

 

I kept my extra change in there and some old gum wrappers.

 

You put your weed in there.

 

pocket knife and keys to a cable lock I use on occasion.
A business card for my Insurance Agent.
That $20.00 bill sounds like a good idea too, I might include that, and some band-aids

 

I keep my chew in that one too. It was my commuter car for years.

 

Wish I still had one in my 2020 Limited. Kept my Burt's Bees lip balm there

 

I bought a used car from a crazy looking chick, possibly tweaking. Found behind the cubbie a bunch of white powder all caked on. Cleaned it out with wet paper towels.

 

I read a post that said that compartment was used as a coin compartment... i opened mine and found about $3-4 of quarters inside... can't remember putting that in there, but it was empty when i got the truck, so Surprise for Me!

 

I forgot that cubby was there until I read this thread. LOL

 

For spare bulbs? Sorry, just thought the headline was gonna give us something better.

I store business cards, matches, and a sunglass cloth in there

 

Thats the switch pocket for me!

4 small switches on an L piece of aluminum.

1. locker anytime
2. full traction / abs off on the fly
3. reverse cam anytime
4. radio on with no keys​
