...I bet I know where. Check under your front seats...and UNDER the plastic vent that goes to the back seats...and you'll see a hole in the carpet. Reach your hand in there and feel around a bit. You'd be suprised what you'll find. I found about 10 lug nuts under there...and a lock nut key...among other things. Give it a shot when you get the chance. I bet you'll find something. Post it on here if you do.

i found $.47, a piece of skateboard hardware, and a drink bottle cap. oh the things you find under your carpet by the air vent.
 
I had one of those laser lights for 2 days, left it in the cup holder and it slipped in behind where the flap comes down...anyone know how to get back there? Damn car :) LOL
 
I had stuff slide under the cup holder flap. I was able to reach it with the tips of my fingers with the flap half closed over my hand. The bottom part of the flap is flexible, by the way.
 
pop open the cup holder. flip open the top, grab the inside of the cupholder and pull it up/towards you. ive found lots of things in there.

Was it an entire pack of nuts or something...or do you just keep large quantities of loose lug nuts in the car??

I found over 3 bucks under there...it's cause us Canadians have so much change.
 
It was my stock set of lug nuts that I threw in a bag in my backseat when i put my winters on. I've been looking for the lugs for MONTHS now.

You can use a lint brush to clean that flap in the cup holder.

Wow, I've always wondered what happened to a lot of my stuff! I'm not sure if I lost my pencil case in my car, but ever since I lost my pencil case, I've had to carry pens and pencils in my pocket. When I get in the car, I always just get lazy and put them in the cup holder (not the best place) and after a while I lost ALL the pens and pencils from my house. I always wondered where the hell they all went. I think it's time to look under the plastic. I even took a flashlight and searched all over my car and never found any of the stuff. Well, once I lost my calculator in my car and I found it lodged between the plastic rail of the car and the part in the middle, even with the flashlight, the calculator looked like a part of the seat! Took me FOREVER to find it.
