Know where I can find the rear storage compartment? Didn't see any on Ebay.

Actually I just found this. This it? And it fits above or below the BOSE unit? I'd love to see a photo of both units installed if anyone has one handy.

Looking at this photo it looks like it's taking up the same space. Seems like it's either this or the BOSE

looking at the size of that so called glovebox, its really not worth $5.
but its weird that they didnt give us one, but rather made it as an option, along with the cupholders.
then again, i dont use cupholders at all, and can live w/o a glovebox.

That's the set-up my ('01) came with when purchased about a year and a half ago. It's nice to have, since we have so little storage space inside the car, but it's not very accessible when you are actually in the process of driving (esp a manual). I tend to store stuff I don't have to grab very often in there, because it's kinda awkward getting stuff in and out when you're shifting, steering, braking, etc. But I'm glad I have it. I've got my owners manual, a small flash light, some small Nikon binoculars and a couple of microfibre towels in there. It's kind of narrow...not much else will fit.

It wasn't an option. Not sure where you're getting this info from.

Maybe he's talking about the top shelf? That was an option later.

get a nice looking tool bag and put all your stuff in it and store it in one of the boots. The only thing you REALLY need in the cockpit are sunglasses and a debit card. Oh, I also need my garage door opener.
