I use it for storage

I've seen a GPS in there, but that's about it for creativeness at this point.

So far I have found nothing I want to put in there.
I have started to take the contents of my pockets and put it in the center console, everything else is either to big or sits in the seat next to me.

Edit: I always have people ask what is in it or try to open it and fail. It does seem to be difficult to open for people oddly.

Thats where I keep my Rayban's. Aside from that I don't keep anything else in the car so my center console is empty as is the glove box.

I would have to break my records into fourths to get them to fit, stupid technology.

Is there a way to take off the storage lid completely and possibly use it as a place to put say a Garmin GPS or Archos in there
