What mods have you done to your ash tray area???
Just wanted to see what other members have done with the ash tray area in their 5th gens. Please post pics and share.
I put my satellite radio into mine. dock sits flush inside so I can close it when not in use, and when the radio is installed, sits nicely against the dash.

Looks cool. I can't wait until I can afford to replace my stock Bose unit (it's always skipping on my cds and doens't allow line in with mp3 players).
I'm wanting to get a double din dvd player type one, but they're so expensive and likely to be stolen.

Well I don't do it cause it's out of habit. From being so new when I bought it and not wanting it to discolor the headliner. So being leather you're right, it doesn't attract smoke like cloth does. I also have tint now as well, and smoke can eat up the glue and cause it to peel at some point over a period of repetitive smoking, and also discolor like a poorly tinted, smoked in Corolla.
Cleaning the windows take a little more elbow grease as well. Main reason I haven't is, that it kills the air quality in the cabin, more frequent cabin filter changes, and a non smoker can still tell. I've experienced this in my Leathered Legend Coupe. I can now tell a difference in interior.
Either way, I just prefer to not do it, and it somewhat lessens the amount of cigs I smoke. When I smoked in my past cars, I definitely smoked more when I was driving.
