ausubaru92 Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 How many cars have a compartment built especially for a mobile phone,... not many, especially in cars that were designed in the early 80's Subaru did their research, and thought 20 years ahead I was wondering who else uses this compartment and what for?

smelly_cat Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 I use the compartment to keep my Plyers, that I use to pull on the wire, "that used to have a plastic handle that broke off", to pop open the hood, so I can stare at all the hoses and vacuum lines that I don't under stand. While I sit on the side of the road, wondering why my GL won't go. SC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
