JDM Coin Holder... :D

[audomatik]

I just got one off of eBay. $8.99 or something like that with shipping. HAHA, how do I pop those little covers off now?

[ragebomb]

Heya, I just got my little jdm coin holder thing too. I installed it this weekend. Here's what I did.

1. Use a philips and find the two screws at the top of your felt-lined coin bin. remove those screws.

2. gently pop the bottom of the coin bin off the dash. There are two metal clips that hold it to the dash at the bottom.

3. With your hand you can now remove the cruise control button, or the dummy plate next to it. Using a long screwdriver, I was able to get extra reach and pop the dummy plate next to the mirror adjustment.

4. Place the coin holder into one of the slots you just opened up. If you change your mind and want to put a dummy plate back, look for the "UP" markings on the dummy plate and re-insert it, that side up.

My coin holder is empty right now... i didn't know that loose change would rattle so much, and it kind of got on my nerves. Sigh.

I just use the coin holder right below the e-brake. Why spend 11 bucks on something JDM.:D

[ragebomb]

I'm with ya. I feel a bit like a dork having bought the coin holder, then not using it. :) I kinda still prefer the felt-lined box under the dash. Ah well, it's the Call of JDM, and we are powerless to resist.

I agree...:D I just bought one too. All they have to do is put "JDM Buy it now" and I'm gonna atleast take a look.;)

[seattlecivic]

I'll sell JDM toilet paper. JDM, JDM, JDM. Bah. What about the parts on our car that are made in Japan anyways? Lets just say that is JDM and sell it for 10Xs the ammount of what its really worth. -FLAME ON!-

[audomatik]

don't hate... haha just playin

[seattlecivic]

I'm sorry, i've never been flamed before. It does seem fun, cause you will end up getting 1000's of views and lots of posts :-) Then you become popular and can become president of the U.S.A.

So please... --FLAME ON!--

[dj addicted]

see.. I use the felt covered area for my sunglasses.. that way they dont get scratched up..

coins... I usually keep them in my pocket because I dont like the sound of the rattling around

[seattlecivic]

wow, to keep this on topic... I put my coins wherever I can that has a holder... doors, cupholders, not the fuzzy holder though. I put my sunglasses there when its not in its case.

[ragebomb]

Since we're on this topic, what do you guys put in the little tray under the driver's cup holder? I used to have a garage door remote there, it barely fit.

[phatfreeza]

okay, heres a question to those who have this mod, is it worth? i think its like $10 on average shipped from ebay. i dunno if i can let go some dinner money for this piece of plastic... :)

[dofu]

lets just put it this way... i used to keep my change in the dual cup holders... when i counted it all out, i had over $20 in change :D and the coin holder only holds eight of the larger coins (quarters, half-dollars, etc...)
it is nice to have quarters in there for emergencies tho...

[cj miller]

i keep all my coins in the back cup holder. my wallet goes in the felt thingy cause i hate sitting on it

[glw]

i hate to admit it but it was my first ebay purchase... $8.99 + $4.00 shipping...

i installed mine on the left side of the steering column by going underneath the dash and poping out the existing blank panel... i had to remove a couple of panels - but no screws... you can figure it out - give it a try.

i like the holder but it's not really worth $13... i was just trying to spend some paypal money i got from a client. she wanted to pay me by credit card - go figure... i'm thinking of using the rest for a dc sports header or something...


edit: whats up with images... you can't insert them any more?

[audomatik]

I finally got it in the mail today. $8 of JDM goodness. bahaha. the funny thing is, i have all my change in the cupholder on the center console, by the e-brake. really no use, maybe i'll keep my quarters in it or something. haha.

[civicSIracer]

do they actuall work or do the coins come flying out at ya??

[seattlecivic]

DAMN GOOD LOOKIN PIC! :-) GOOD LOOKIN OUT :-) GOOD LOOKIN JDM GOODNESS!!!

Wheres the secret hiding spot???, not that i need to be hiding stuff from the popo, but its nice to know where to hide things if i need to, lol

ok i know it sounds dumb, after he said its under the cup holders, but ive looked under there and and didnt see a place to hide anything?? (Confused)

[SiRacer03]

You'll have to slide the cup holders open and you'll find the nice compartment there.

[Rumble]

I just went on Ebay and purchase one for a total of $6-$7US shipped. My first Ebay purchase and I don't even have an EP3 or DC5. I just thought I'd make a small purchase for my first off Ebay. I'll probably give this to my cousin with an EP3 or my friend with a DC5. :D

[Mr.02BlackSIguY]

i just got one.. 7 bucks shipped off ebay, so it wasnt as bad. its just looks cool and its OMG OMG JDM. but i put my change in the back cup holder.. the jdm coin holder is just a cool factor. for looks i guess :)

This little thing is causing all the fuss. That, thats it! Sorry but I just don't get it. I use the hidden compartment under the cup holders. Other that that I hate things cluttering up my car. Just my 2 cents.

[BrokenLimits]

Thats pretty neat. I wonder if it would fit my car...

[jisungoppa]

Really really really sorry to bring up an old post.

I was wondering where you could buy the original empty spacer/panel thing that used to be there before you put the JDM coinholder in.

Thanks

[v1c10us]

that fuzzy thing is just the right width for a pack of smokes and a lighter so that goes there.
I put my phone in the part below the ebrake cause it makes a loud noise when it vibrates there. my coins..
uh I dont really have coins very often not sure why, i use all of my change when i buy cigarettes everyday.

[gettheledout]

where'd you get taht? thats just precious :gheywa:

[moso]

the little fuzzy part my cigaretes go there and coins in the cup holder in the center, as far as the jdm coin holder i dont like it cuz my ae110 corolla s has it and its an automatic and coin still fly everywhere while hugging turns

[k-powered]

The cheapest i found on ebay was 10 plus 5 shipping.

[Mycull]

I usually just throw them everywhere, so when I clean my car, I find like 20 bucks. Its sometimes a good feeling.

Im still trying to find something to put on that little shelf right by the drivers cupholder! I want to use it, I dont know why!

[Andrew]

lol it's just JDM, that's why ppl get it

[shivic]

that's funny. i have a full ctr and mine doesn't have that coin holder. maybe it's from a non type r jdm ep.

[danielakatoxic]
