Just a thread to see what everyone keeps in thier storage bins. Here's what I keep..

Driver's Side storage bin
Portable set of wrenches (got for x-mas last year)
3 Terry Cloth towels (used)
WD-40
Windex behind the driver's seat
Uner the bin is the amp

Passenger's Side bin
Eagle One quick shine (instant detailer for those bird crap stains)
Armor-all orange wipes (just in case)
Extra set of spark plugs (in case the engine floods)
Two lighters (in case the second set of plugs flood)
Coolant behind the passenger's seat.

 

Passenger = battery
driver== space

 

Driver's- Nothin
Passenger's- Fire Extinguisher....like the big one you keep underneath the sink.

 

driver: battery cables red rag
passenger: coolant

 

h2o

 

A big 'ol rat nest was in there when I got it.

Now=nothing.

I find when I'm practicing my mad dorifto skillz, things rolling around in the back throw my car off balance and cause the bolts on my intake manifold to blow off.

 

You FB people are pretty spoiled. I have no such luxuries in my 79.

However, I do have an "oh ****" kit way it the back with a whole bunch of stuff to fix anything that goes wrong.

 

That's the 2nd shot of nawz yo.

 

Fire extinguisher, shop manual, and a roll of duct-tape in teh right side

AS for the left, that is an adventure in need of exporaltion.

 

umm... three terry cloths

nothing else.

 

Mine seems to pick up whatever the hell will fit in there. I really need to clean those out.

 

Passenger side = 6 disk cd changer, set of metric wrenches, screwdrivers, clothes, and other tools
Drivers side = some oil, coolant, MMO (for when im gasing up).

 

All the other junk I removed from the car, they're now sitting in my storage shed.

 

1st bin = Jumper cables, Flash light, Fire Extinguisher (MAD RICE!!!...j/k), extra fuel filter, rachet/socket set (small), a Small plug in your lighter tire air compressor (its really cool)

2nd Bin = Terry cloth towels, Extra belts, screwdriver (flat/phillips), vice grips, and small box of fuses.

 

Nothing in eithe bin, because they are no longer in my car!

 

Drivers side
-12 disc changer (came with car)
-booklet sold originaly with car.
-shop manual

Passenger side
-a whole lot of binders, papers, magazines, pens, pencils, and a pair of venture trucks

wowsa, how did all that get in there?

 

i replace the storage biens a instales 2 10 inch subs and two 6 by 9 pioneer speakers

 

Before Cleaning
Driver side: old t shirt car cover and sunroof enevelope
Passenger: 10-w40 Castrol gtx anti freeze a rench etc.

After cleaning.
Driver side = Jumper Cables
Passenger : nothing

 

what type of subs did you use? is the bass boomy? I'm debating betwen 1 Eclipse Type R 10 or 2, i don't think I have enough power to run 2, and I don't want it to be too boomy.

 

Driver side : 2 cycle oil, oil, rags, paper towels, AC belt.
Pass side : starter that i need to put on the car, some other things that i can't rember off hand but came of the car

 

driver- extra head light oil and windshield scraper
pass- 10 disc cd changer

 

passenger+driver (there is no sorting):
haynes manual
old cassettes from when i still had a tape deck ("In the midnight hour!, she cried more more more!"
spare luggies
wheel spacers (now that the 15" rim is the spare, it may have to roll up front)
mmo
carb cleaner
CB radio (needs installation)
75/90 gear oil
spare motor oil
spare alternator (somebodies lazzzyyyy)
suggah: "i think i have your vice grips" sparkie: "well thats were they went!"
anything thats been removed, or has otherwise fallen off during its service life.

dont even ask about the glove box

 

Since my 1979 does not have bins. Could someone send me a template of the size and placement of the cutouts so I can cut out the holes where the bin doors go and make some doors. Maybe there was a template with the kit Mazda used to offer for the early RX-7's? TIA

 

I removed those stupid bins decades ago so that my surfboard can fit. I guess you can say I have a surfboard back there (sometimes).

Who needs an ol' **** tool box and parts when there's AAA

Reasons for calling: throttle stuck open b/c a rivet lodged in there, dead battery, dead battery, bad starter, and bad fuel pump. That's 0.3 times per year.

 

driver's side: walmart tool set, terry rag, MMO.

Passenger side: adjustable thermostat for electric fan, random screws and extra wire..
