Re: ash tray mod?
My truck never had a lighter, just a body color plug...the ash try was full of smelly cig butts, but oddly enough, the interior doesn't stink like an ashtray

Re: ash tray mod?
I use mine for a change holder and phone charger.
I used to have an Air-fuel mix gauge in there. i didnt have to attatch it, it just set right in the hole and stayed there for years. I put the gauge in there because I got tired of having to look at the flashing LEDS all the time, so in the ashtray i was able to cloe it when i didnt wanna look at it. |

Re: ash tray mod?
 you could always just leave it alone and take up smoking... the "cool" people are still doing it but seriously... i like the cup holder idea. that is a necessity for me

Re: ash tray mod?
A control panel for your Air Ride will fit just fine.

Re: ash tray mod?
I put my trailer brake controller in there. I close it when not towing for a cleaner look.
