I had my woofers out. It appeared they were vented through those vents. Why are you so angry?

What does the outside of the sub box attach to then? You know since you replaced yours right? Define what having them off is also please.

I'll clarify what I'm asking above. The open end of the subwoofer housing that has the foam around the edge which seals to the body seals to what? It sure isn't the heater vent :

So it's possible that the loose change fell into the sub vent and is now in the rocker panel? I confess I only skimmed this thread.

I also had this noise, sounds like a coin sliding back and forth as I took corners. The first time I found a coin in the passenger seat thigh extension under the leather flap. The second time, I looked under the seat in the vent area and could find nothing. Appears there are small compartments in the thigh extension and there was a second coin trapped in there. Good luck with your search and make your passengers with slacks empty their front pockets.

This.

Same thing happened to me. After weeks of looking everywhere else that has been mentioned in this thread, I stumbled across the back end of the console. There is a direct path for small thin items to fall into down from the armrest into space in front of the rear A/C controls/cover.

Good luck.

I thought the switch had something to do with cooling to that cup holder in there. Can't recall for sure.
