Secret stash place in center compartment
 

Anyone noticed or use this secret space to store emergency cash?

Apologize in advance for the dirty compartment:tiphat:

Well, geez! Now everybody knows about it. heehee

Don't apologize, just clean it. :tup:

Owned the car for 4 years now and never saw that.

umm, wait where it this?? now I am going to run to my Z, when I get home to look for it.

Underneath the liner, I guess.

The shop that installed my stereo scratched my center console during the install so they ordered me a new one. I discovered that little hiding spot when I was installing the new console. Very sneaky.

Open the lid on your center console. Slide everything in there forward and look back toward the area where the console and the lid hinge together. There's a little plastic piece designed to keep small items from interfering with the lid opening. That's what's in the picture.

How do you get it to open?

Slide it up.

Any chance you can take a picture from a further point?

Haha gotta show the world how awesome our Zs are!! Now girlfriends of Z owners know the "I forgot my wallet" excuse is BS :rolleyes: sorry fellas

ok i ran down to the car.... ITS THEREEEE hahahaha!!!!! :nutswinger:

wow.

I dont partake in illegal activites, but this is nice to know!

there is a much better place located a little further forward and under your cup...

Pic?

Pull cup holder up and out.

Man! I am just referring to hiding a couple bucks, not narcotics haha

Lol so am I, a couple stacks of cash fit in there.

Never, ever seen this... I will check in a few days when I'm by the car

I now know where to store my cocaine

Well that's great but it says in the op its for emergency cash. There is also a better one if u pull up the plastic ring around the shifter. Mine is a 7at so I doubt it works for the manual but maybe. It's definitely a nice size spot just pop it up, insert meds :yum: and close. Your welcome!

Fixed

My car swallowed $20 bucks down that compartment when I closed the lid. Ssmoked I want my $20 back!

Yea, I put ten 100's in there. Gone. You owe me a G homey.

Now i have a new place where to keep my viagra pills!!!

I don't think YOU'LL have enough in there for one sitting...

Man mine is like Pringles once you pop you cant stop!

See now everybody knows, including thieves. :p

I had to take the piece completely out but it fits a full size 9mm pistol pretty well. Easy to access too.

There's so much room for activities now.

still confused as to what area we're talking about. That piece doesn't move as far as i know? Any pics?

Instructions provided.

Cool toy you are the f-ing sh**!

So I looked at this, removed the panel, and there's like no room in there for pretty much anything worthwhile. Plus it totally looks like anything that would go in there would get swallowed into the abyss.

Safe?
 

The safest place for your cash (not your stash) is in your front pocket! Anywhere else is subject to someone coming across it.

iPods and phones fit no problem for me. Haven't lost anything into the armrest abyss yet.

I still don't get it.

Yeah. Like my $20 bucks!

Good news is with a panel tool I'm pretty sure the center console comes apart somewhat easily. If that 20 bucks is worth it to you.
