What do you keep in the Side Compartment of the door.
 
I was wondering as to what the members of this board keep in the side compartment of the door, I have attached velcro and it hold my pistol or my key when needed.

In the driver's door pocket: sunglasses, wallet and the little red clip for the alarm system. Nothing in the passenger side pocket.

A couple of sticks of dynamite for slow drivers or unforseen roadblocks... hahahahaha just kidding....
Sunglasses, my old digital cam on the driver side and sunglasses, new england best roads roadmap and kleenex in the passenger side (Caution wife may change contens without given notice)

I keep my wallet there while I go into the gym! It's basically hidden:) Unless you have a Boxster you wouldn’t know its there. Heck, when I bought mine I didn’t even see it until after a couple weeks!

paintboy 10-24-2012 04:45 AM

four inch tall silver plastic alien, reading glasses, passenger side is empty, as far as I know...

How do you guys fit a gun in there? I'm already having difficulty pulling out just a CD... maybe I have fat fingers.

You'll find a flame thrower and whatever book I might be reading at the time .

ProjectM96 10-24-2012 06:45 AM

Tissues, Wheel Lock, Tire Pressure Gage, Insurance/registration, and EZ Pass.

Sometimes I find candy wrappers and torn mail that my gf hides in the passenger side.

Ghostrider 310 10-24-2012 07:29 AM

N/A on race cars

Homeboy981 10-24-2012 08:11 AM

Remote garage door opener (wanted to find a way to use buttons on my dash but could not find the proper "rocker switches" that matched the console). Also, sunglasses, t-shirt for spills.

On the far side, mine answer is like @Heiko's response….empty but (Caution wife may change contens without given notice).

Not that you would ever consider transporting a restricted firearm (directly to and from the approved range of course) without it being unloaded, in a locked case, and accompanied by a valid Authorization to Transport. ;)

Reckles_Kelly 10-24-2012 09:50 AM

I keep my pistol there while I'm at work or going into somewhere that I can't take it. Passenger side has all of my wife's stuff to keep her hair in place because the top doesn't go up unless it's raining!

thstone 10-24-2012 09:56 AM

+1 to all you guys who carry guns. :cheers:

Since I track my car a lot, there isn't anything in either side compartment.

I laughed when I read this. We have weird gun laws up here. I've got nothing in there right now while she is in storage but usually have several sungalsses, napkins and insurance info.

I had him recite the Star Spangled Banner, along with the Gettysburg Address, while placing his right hand on the latest edition of Leg Show magazine.

They're the real deal !

kjc2050 10-24-2012 04:56 PM

I attached my garage door opener (minus the clip) to the inside of the compartment with Velcro; I also keep the red clip in the compartment.

nicecar 10-24-2012 05:06 PM

door
 
great idea on the g door opener

Bryan topping 10-24-2012 05:12 PM

Mini-Maglight flashlight

jrider36 10-24-2012 06:56 PM

Absolutely nothing. I usually throw my gym bag in the trunk and iphone gets connected and put under the central console. There is something peaceful about a car without clutter and junk everywhere.

Botoxster 10-24-2012 06:59 PM

I slip a water bottle in mine when I'm out for a drive.

mcomet 10-24-2012 07:19 PM

Microfiber cloth and point and shoot camera.

I keep window spray and oil in front trunk inside spare wheel area with te existing Velcro to keep it all tight.

tony_fury 10-24-2012 08:26 PM

my crack pipe and lighter...

joking..:p
