I picked up a new 2005 Legacy 2.5i last weekend, and am looking for a way to replace the ash tray with a small spring loaded coin holder.

Yeah, I am just that big of a geek that I want it to fit in the spot of the existing ash tray. I hate loose change, too, so just dumping change in there doesn't work for me. (How picky is that?)

I did a quick tour of a couple national auto parts chains, but I didn't find anything suitable or able to be modified to fit..

Anyone else out there have this same thought and come up with a workable solution?

no i dont have the same idea but i have an idea that might make yours work.. alot of early 90's cars had those I suggest going to a local junk yard and finding your self one then use your good old skills of hack and modd and do it up... thats at least what i would do.

that is one piece, and cannot be replaced, or modified...without looking pretty ugle, i have suggested that we build "just that", a coin tray in that spot...to noavail...
