Is that thing a "coin slot"? Cause I figure my coins would just fall right out of there. Its just wide open... when I floor it, I'll have coins all over the floor.

I now use the ashtray for my coins. Even during hard cornering, I havent heard one peep out of them.

I can't stand having anything loose in my car. The whole thing is empty except for whatever I have to carry for that trip, and that's in the trunk, rolling around like it owns the place.

You could charge people for rides if you had a coin slot!

I use that slot on the left for my garage door opener. I took the clip off of it and got 3 small velcro dots and secured it nicely in that spot. Out of sight, out of mind.

I use my "non-smokers" ashtray to hold my spare Co-Op card and pocket knife. Ooo la la all that velvety ashtray goodness. ;\

Where did you get a velvety ashtray? Mine is just plastic (for actual smoking). Was my 2006 supposed to come with that or did you buy it somewhere? Just curious because I would like to get one. Thanks

Its an accessory and sells for around $30 I think. Here is a great place to get accessories, and usually have the best prices (and is a forum sponsor - Showcase Mazda) ... http://www.mazdapontiacgmcparts.net/ . I think the 'ashtray replacement compartment' is the one you need, but I can't tell from the pic

That "coin slot" is the perfect place for my wallet when I get in my car.

WOW, is this a record with regards to a dead thread being resurrected?  Until today, the previous last post was made on 12/24/03.  This is proof positive that the Search function does work!

I've ordered from them before and saw the 'ashtray replacement compartment' - but does that have the velvet lining? I guess I could call them during business hours, but from the picture (which is hard to see) it just looks like a replacement of the original, which is plastic. Just curious if you or someone has actually ordered this.

After being screamed at.....I definitely search before posting (and yes, usually find what i'm looking for).
