What's that for???? Is that supposed to be for cup holders, ash tray or some other type of accessory?

Its a blank filler peice thats normally a ashtray spot on other cars.

 

[Drewskiz]

False. It is actually for a rear cup holder.

 

[StealthWyvern]

How is my statemet false?

 

[Drewskiz]

That blank is for a rear cup holder, not an ashtray.

he said it was an ashtray on other cars, which is true. He didn't say it was an ashtray on other proteges.

About the little square thing***^

 

[im2bad4ya]

Was it a factory option on Protege's? Anyone have pics of what it should look like? Is it rare or common? I definitely wouldn't mind getting that if I can find it.

I think it would have to come from jdm land.

BUT what does that have to do with the price of tea in China?


Corksport use to sell the cup holder kits back in the day. It looked pretty flimsy but I guess it was better than having your crotch hold the drink during a long car ride.

Here is the pic, I guess that still leaves the issue open as to what the box is for.
