Default SC430 non-smoker's box mod!

Remove ashtray from center console.

Pull upward on metal flange.

Replace ashtray.

Store flange in a safe place.

Enjoy more room for chapstick, phones, etc.

Removing that metal piece alone is not enough, you need to buy a sheet of stiffened adhesive backed felt and custom cut it to complete the job or it might still scratch your phone.

This is my DIY non-smokers' box mod that I did long time ago.

Very nice, good attention to detail. That little slot left behind was driving me crazy and I was looking forward to the right places being open tomorrow so I could complete STAGE 2 (haha). Soon I will realize the dream of the perfected non-smokers box.
