Default Console bracket to hold stuff under parking brake

I had a problem of not having storage for smokes, sunglasses, lighter and other random things. So I made a piece out of 1 in x 1 in metal and then screwed into my console under my parking break to keep stuff from sliding under my seat. I know it's not much but it does the job.

I've been thinking about doing something like this. I think I may have to copy.

Nice touch. Been keeping glasses, earbud etc there but always have to be carefule. One more thing for the homecheapo shopping list.

Nice touch indeed. Don't forget about double sided tape for those who don't wanna screw to the console. This is a good idea.

Awesome idea!

I had a lighter find it's way under my driver seat carpet, needless to say it blew and really freaked me out. What's funny is before it blew I was telling the GF about Auto JKs that had caught on fire.

That's a great idea!

I would put some black paint on it to make it blend in with the console.

I think I will have to do this, thanks!
