Yep,it's a Belkin amp/charger combo for my iPod which I can't find anymore since mine has seen some abuse but still works fine.
I did forget to take a pic of the (added in '99) middle console compartment on top of the armrest and there's also the digital odometer and two tripometers.

I added my aux in for my old school alpine right there ..... that way i can plug my cheap ebay "mp3" player in, or the girl can plug her Ipod in. or i can pull sound off the laptop if we are watching a movie. Not as cool as a screen or a car PC, but it was a good $20 upgrade.

Dude, excellent question. I have no idea what will even fit in that area. Cigarettes will fit above them if you wedge them in a little Tic Tacs fit too, to the left of the outlets, and that's about it, at least what I have tested. I feel like that area could have been a little better designed

yea, it almost irritates me that i cant find anything to do with that space. it would have been pretty cool to have another outlet maybe there and just have outlets all the way across. what about the space where the center console is at? the space thats behind the parking brake. i had one of those tiny bottles of alcohol from an airplane there, i never touched it cause i forgot it was there. haha

The space to the left is great for stuffing the excess wire from my XM plug n' play in there, before that it was useless. The little cubby next to the e-brake holds my work id, hospital id, random business cards, and a pack of gum. It took me a while to notice the headrest holders. Another good storage area is under the rear passenger seat with the jack and tools. There is room for extra tools in there

i love the upper compartment in the center console
funnny story about finding my upper compartment (about 3 weeks into ownership)
in the dark i had just yanked on the console and thrown my wallet in it. later that night i opened the console... the WHOLE console and alas my wallet was no where to be found. so i proceeded to cancel my cards, whine about losing a 20 spot, cry over my sea world fun pass and scream over my lost fake id.
a week later, after getting all new cards a friend of mine pulls on the console, just like i did the night in the dark, and hands me my wallet.
lets just say i felt pretty stupid but my wallet pretty much lives in the top part

My only story:
I leave change in it because the ash-tray gets too heavy and will eventually open itself every time I went over a bump... so one day, my buddy opens the console, hears change, and goes ape for maybe 15 minutes trying to figure it out. He tried pulling the bottom of the console, opening it really fast, opening it slow, everything. Eventually he gave up, until I was in the drive-thru and I opened it for exact change and I told him how
That's actually happened on two separate occasions... except one of my friends got it in about a minute... lol
