I think I've worked out what it is. It's a emergency condom dispenser. Just in case we wanna bend anyone over into the boot...

Not a bad idea for the SIngle guys/girls out there LOL. WOuld a good fit for them. Although the heat of the day might aahhmm affect there durability LOL.

Nissan Frontier trucks had a similar slot by the steering wheel. A flat card shaped device was inserted there. You could remove it, and the truck would not start!

I think he's right

Yeah I had a quick flick through the manual and in the alarm section, there is in bold writing something about a card. It doesn't elaborate on it but it, but it's a one sentence line. I couldn't find anything in there about condom dispencing but hey, it could be in the service manual you never know lol....

That's a good question, and one that no one has answered yet it seems. I've just found it myself.

Good place to keep your fuel card if you have one, or business cards perhaps. I've seen some countries where they have a swipe card for road and parking tolls, so perhaps that's what it's for.

Anyone with other ideas?
