Julian McHardy Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 Has anyone found a use for the small (make that tiny) 'compartment' on the driver's side of the hand brake? Even putting a £20 note in there means you need to be skilled in origami... I can't even use the 12v socket for charging anything as it gets in the way of my left arm when the lid is up. Nevertheless I am sure someone on here has found it useful for something. Golf tee??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul P Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 Isn’t it an ashtray ? I plug my Ctek into the ciggy lighter socket there but otherwise it’s unused for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menoporsche Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 Oh the long one with the flap? Sorry the remote goes in the long one now I think of it. The short one takes a few coins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike1960 Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 Emergency sticking plaster? Emergency match stick? Emergency sewing kit? I will keep an eye on this as I think the answers will give an insight into the lives of the people that reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowbos Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 I tried keeping my garage door opener in there but it was too fiddly to remove so now that lives in my armrest... But I do keep an SD card adaptor in there - in case I remove the dashcam MicroSD card and need to keep it safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davey P Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 I had a look this morning, because I couldn't remember putting anything in there. Apparently, I use mine for empty sweet wrappers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minimoog Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 I'm confused (for a change). Are people talking about the ashtray here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, as far as I can tell they're talking about the ashtray. Although I'd be surprised if anyone would be stupid enough to smoke in these wonderful cars, so it's a shame it couldn't be converted to just a plain cubby hole instead (Or better still, just blanked off) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minimoog Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 Gotcha, ta. I don't put anything in mine because the lid's broken and Porsche want north of £180 for a new one. As if. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian McHardy Posted October 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 Thanks everyone. My apologies - I should have called it the ashtray, but not sure it would hold that much ash. I thought I might be missing something but obviously not. A few coins gets my vote - maybe just enough for a condom, but doubt there is sufficient space for both...

Tony Daniel Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 On a 986 you can get a smokers delete package which changes the ashtray for a storage pocket. I've never seen one for a 987 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVO Chris Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 that's a good idea, my garage door remote would at least fit in it. Mind you my OCD would need a lid fitted as it would look terribly untidy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menoporsche Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 Edited out my earlier stupidity, was confusing it with my Toyota. Most be an ashtray as mine has a cone with a hole at the bottom, surely for stubbing out. Would love to remove the cone, coins get stuck under it.

Think the ashtray bit comes out - not sure about the "stubber" - handy if you want to hide small packets of something in car - allegedly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
