What do you put in the cubby above the hood release?

[raystafarian]

Just wondering, what do you all put in this little pocket? I can't find a use for it.

Wish someone would tell me a use for it. It's really not deep enough to hold much.

A small Purell bottle. It stays put, even in spirited driving.

How about 1 or 2 USB sticks for MP3 music?

Nothing.

My 2013 doesn't have one.

It's pretty useless due to the lack of any rake towards the back of the cubby. I wedge my bifold money clip in there but its not really ideal.

I could put my keys there however I like the center storage area for that.

Its where the nav unit fitted on the tom tom cars, its not seriously intended to be used for anything I would think.

What were the 'tom-tom' cars?

I've been using it to hold quarters for parking meters. I usually keep 8-10 quarters in there.

Who are all these people flossing and driving? That sounds even worse than texting and driving.

On my 2015 AWD, Anything I put into the cubby before the NAV install was ejected upon launch.

I really am shocked that Mazda did not do something with this leftover appendage on the 2016 models, as now there is really no purpose for it.

The best thing I can think of is to attach a plastic door to the cubby to give it a lid.

Or perhaps mold/3D print an item that would push into the cubby to enhance the usability.(stoned)
