I put it right in between the e-brake lever and the center console, just sits there pretty well.

Whew! Glad I got that off my chest. I feel better now. Thanks.
Well said!

Stuck my iPhone in the ashtray once. One quick pull on the throttle sent it flying underneath my seat and onto the floor in the back. So I nixxed that idea.

I'm starting to hate the iPhone cradle too. Almost every time I have to go back down to the garage to grab the phone because I forgot to take it with me. I should've saved the money and just used my car charger for juice.

Cash and card holder stays in my pockets.

Sometimes I put my phone/wallet in the little gap between thigh support bolster and the main seat on the passenger seat.

If you want to put coins, sunglass, keys, phone and wallet all in the car, where would you put them?

I leave my phone and wallet in my pocket most of the time, coins in a coin bag and hide in the door storage, keys sometimes in pocket or center console, sunglass in the case it comes with and put in center console.

Wallet between the hand brake and the console. Treo goes in a pouch attached to the door. I just noticed today that the holder matched the interior color perfectly. That holder had been sitting in a box for about 3 years when I decided to use it in the car a couple of weeks ago.

iPhone (with rubber jacket) goes on the navigation shelf. Wallet goes on the ashtray. When not in use, my sunglass also goes on the nav shelf. On long trips, both wallet and iPhone goes in the door side-panel.

wallet is in my back pocket and phone is either connected to charger resting in passenger seat in between where the leg extender thing goes out or in my lap.

but it does get annoying with my tight a$$ jeans having chapstick, big rectangle block of bmw key (comfort access), couple of coins, phone in other pocket, and wallet. etc...

so i end up taking everything out and putting it in passenger seat

OK, I'll bite.

Is it a California thing that you have to have your wallet off your person? Too much spent on those stylin' jeans???
