some pennyless moron...
...put my coinholder in upside down! i guess she (the previous owner is presumed to be female due to the plastic hair barettes and ties i keep finding) didnt care much for coins. where is all my loose change gonna go?? i didnt even know what it was til i saw a picture of hucks and it had quarters or something in it. i tried to put a quarter in and it fell out. i tried to get it out but its stuck.
is there a method i can use without breaking it? i thought the title might actually get someone in this time.

I took mine out to consider putting a tranny temp gauge in the spot. On each side are some "catches" that hold it to the dash. You should be able to insert a flat bladed screwdriver, push in and with a twist or prying action, get it to pop out. Use a cloth around the screwdriver if you're concerned about damage to the material around it.

yeah i tried that minus the twisting and cloth. ill do that next. i really do want to put my coins there though, i go through a lot of 'toll' type booths. parking garages and such.
just thought i should mention ill be populating the chat. just in case. messaging is great but real time is so much better sometimes.

well that sounds fun. but ive never had a coin holder and i want to try it out. i dont usually drive fast unless a truck or something tries to pass me. most people in this town have learned their lesson but there is still fools out there.... =_= ...
perhaps its flawed design is the reason it was inserted upside down?

A couple questions:
1. Why was it removed in the first place? 2. How did you pull that panel off as there is supposed to be a bolt behind the coin holder holding that panel on in addition to the clips.

It seems as if it's aimed for the drivers side seat rail, it falls right in there never to be seen again. I try not to use it either but if IU put it in my pocket it just slides out on the seat anyway.

I never have coins fall out of the holder, but I don't really like to use it, either. If you only have a few in it, they tend to rattle and make a horrible racket.
I'll be pulling mine out - I plan on putting my tranny temp gauge there.

My seat heater buttons are there. The only problem is i always bump them when i start the car causing the seat to get hot. It really sucks in the summer.
