The glovebox project

Inspired by the desire to promote further interactivity between the visitors to the Pen, as well as a segment that took place on Triple M's afternoon drive show, The Shebang, we have launched an initiative we would like to call The Glovebox Project. This is a call out to those in possession of motor vehicles, to check out their gloveboxes, and tell the world what's inside.
I'm interested, what do I have to do?
Open up your glovebox and inspect its contents. Leave a comment and tell us what you have found.
I've got my own site, what can I do?
If you've got your own site, feel free to drop us a line (through the comments or the trackback/ping-pong system) with the link to your posts. This of course, can be advantageous as you have the creative freedom to use photographs, whatever. At the time this article was published, you are only limited by your imagination.
I'm still bored, what else can I do?
Spread the word, pretty please =D Any questions/feedback is always welcome.
What's in your glovebox?

Rooster: Surprisingly it seems that I do not have a lot of the proverbial "crap" inside my glovebox. Probably because the aforementioned "crap" has found its place in and around the vicinity of the handbrake and the gearstick. Anyway, the following items were found:
- Numerous KFC refresher towel packets (thanks Mushroom!);
- A pair of Ray-Ban aviator sunglasses;
- A 2-pack of small lightbulbs (only one lightbulb was found);
- The owner's handbook for the car;
- A yellow inter-office envelope, containing additional documentation relating to the car; and
- A pamphlet for a smash repairer located in the Seven Hills district.
Mushroom: (Will include a pic later after I steal Rooster's camera)
I don't have too much crap in my glove box either... then again it's an adopted glovebox because it's not my car (so to speak).
- Red P plates from when I was a newbie provisional driver.
- Insurance forms
- Car manual and registration information
- Carkit for portable CD player
- Tube looking thingy spare part.. I have no idea what it is..
- Pen and Scrap paper
New! For anyone wanting a button to link to the "Glovebox Project".. here they are. But please save on to your own server:
