And I only noticed today , That there is a pen holder in the glove box!

Was changing the pollen filter and noticed it , Does everyone with a G/MK4 have one or know that it was there?

Now to find a nice pen :D

Nice find!

I noticed (long after I bought my car) that there's dual cup holders in the back seat.

They all should have them. took me a year to realize it was there. I now have a dark metal pen in there. Whenever i had normal ones in there people would always steal them. Now they can't even see the pen in there.

in all calibras (i think) there is a hose going into the back of the glovebox, the other end of this hose goes into the A/C unit so u can keep cans of drink cold while the glovebox is closed :p

LOL :)

no Opel pen yet but have a nice leather Opel document folder (on the shelf above)

the AUD coins sit tight inside, but only the $1 and $2, others are either too big, 50c, or too small 10c but these days tolls are so expensive you would spend 5 minutes at the toll booth before it finishes counting all the 10 and 20 cent shrapnel :P

As it should be. Traffic flows much better.

Back on topic. I have an organizer on the top half of my glovebox. Holds my small screw and torx set, a piece of foam holding spare bulbs and fuses, another section with mints and the larger area which is meant for cd storage holds my cb radios.
