A question I always wanted to ask. In the trunk beneath the floor mat there are two cut-outs. Left is the tire-fit set and right is empty. Am I missing something? Did you have something in there?

Thanks.

 

That's for smuggling stuff over the border.

 

AHHH HAHAHAHAHA

 

The right side one fits my "borrowed" M/B First Aid kit perfectly.......

 

smuggling, hmmm interesting I found a great spot while installing my luminated door sills, anybody else find it?

 

it holds: a can of my 3M window cleaner, quick detailer spray & microfiber towels.

 

Yes I do use it as storage, but obviously you didn't have anything in there neither.

Hey viper2ko, a place for your changer!

Not good/large enough for smuggling.

 

Dittos.

That too!

 

It fits my capacitors, battery and cables for my amps and subwoofers.

 

The parts person at my local Chrysler dealer was looking up some items for me and pointed out that she can order both a first aid kit and warning triangle kit for the car. Apparently these are factory available parts that don't seem to make it into the cars.

 

I'm going to check how many beer cans I can fit into that hole!

 

For best results pour only beer in the hole, leave the cans out. Use a straw.

 

beer through a straw is my favorite!

 

Or just get a couple bags of ice and fill the whole back storage with beer!

 

Mine came with a first aid kit and a warning triangle.

 

The first aid kit and triangle are required items in England.

 

I feel better--mine were empty.

Norrie I believe is from Scotland not England (he may get upset). Bought my xf roadster in England - no first aid kit or triangle present - must be a dealer freebie to Scots.

 

I had first aid kit and triangle in the car as well. The triangle is a must in Switzerland and every new car comes with one. For the first aid kit, I'm not sure. It used to be a must.

Those two things were not in the hole but attached with the velcro fastening to the latch side of the trunk.

 

The first aid kit & warning triangle are required equipment in Germany, so MB makes a place to put them.
