Front Lisc. Plate in mine

JoAnne - I assume those beads are from Mardi Gras? I'm afraid to ask how you came to collect that many!

Yes they are direct from Bourbon Street.
How did I get them???
<WINK>



As for the pocket, other than the underwear mentioned before, we used to keep our front license plate in the pocket.

" Hi Officer, what did I do wrong?"
yada yada yada....
"You want to know where my front plate is?"
Yada
"It fell off and I have it stowed in the font compartment".
Yada Yada Yada Yada Yada
"What? You want to see it?"
Yada.
"Okay.... Here it is.... WHOOPS, those are my underwear too." "Sorry sir".

On the 911UK site there is a vendor who makes a nice looking clip that holds the warning triangle in place and makes the pocket look tidy.

I'm afraid to ask given the chatter here but does anyone know how to get a hold of a ROW warning triangle? I'd like to fill the pocket as it was designed.

Qt. of oil, paper funnels (from Mobil gas station,) and standard headlight lamps in a ziploc in case a HID bulb ever dies.

Joanne, pics or it didn't happen.

My early 95 has the pocket and triangle in it. I am guessing only the early cars have it?
