I didn't find any change in mine...but the Supra was still somewhat of a gamble...Good analogy.

It's where you put the change left after spending just about everything you have getting it running! ;)

On one of my old projects I kept the last $1 coin I had left and turned a recess in the Gear Knob and epoxied it in to remind myself just how out of hand it had gotten!

ummmm yeah.... ill just be nice with this... lol

the "coin" ones are not switches...they open up and you can put COINS in them.... its just another coinholder or two that toyota put in the car.

over the years toyota put a different veriety of switches there and they used the coinholders to fill up voids.

of course, they could always put more COIN holders, but when it comes to CUP holders what do they do? Give us the sorry lame excuse of a cup holder for the center arm rest.

Then when your a 90-92 youve got the g'damn Airbag controller in there so the use of the cup holders gets even further more limited. ALl i want is acup holder that can hold me 72oz Big Gulp at 7-11 :nono: isntead of forcing it in between my legs as i drive, better not tense up or say bye to those nice dry pants and say hello to stained seats :(

In all my daze (days), I have yet to figure out what an "L" is.... Please educate me.

The "coin" holder was designed as an afterthought... It was supposed to have an opening on the other side, where you could DIRECTLY pour your money into your Supra.

Because of the poor design of the COIN-receptacle, we are now forced to troll the for-sale sections, bitch about Autozone (Pep-Boys, etc,), and complain about the cost of aftermarket options (lips, etc). The best mod, will be when someone is able to replace that coin holder, with a swipe-thingy, to use your ATM card (plus surcharges).:biglaugh:

Toyota likes to use coin holders instead of blank plates a lot of times. I commend them on this, lol. I hate blank plates.

On a side note, some 86.5's, and 87's don't have the coin holder, and places like Germany never got it.

See, now I've added some useful info to this thread .

On a side note: I never keep change in my car... it rattles, and that's SO annoying. Change, stay in pocket!

my 86.5 had a blank plate in it. that annoyed the crap out of me! i picked up a few coin holders from junkyards, which now house a kill switch, (won't say what that kill switch is for;)) and i dont keep coins in them because it rattles, and that's annoying as hell!
