A roll of TP :flush:
I see you go 4 wheeling with your wife, funny thing is, that's the first question my wife asks me when she gets in our truck. She always asks, did i remember to bring any TP??? Nice to know great minds think alike. Ha Ha
 
I added 2 speaker grilles to the door to the compartment and installed my icom ic7000 ham radio in there...the extra grilles provide much needed ventilation
 
Drill a bunch of holes in the front plastic 'plate' - for airflow and installed a HF/2m/uhf rig in there.

Picture early into the install/fitting. It has a remote head, so the rig lives in the cubby hold and the head unit up front.

The other side where the jack lives has extra stuff like emergency space bags etc. Stuff that normally shouldn't be needed.

cheers,

Left side: Zip ties, folding shovel, jack and jack tools, oil, transmission fluid, hammer.

Right side: binoculars, first aid kit, small pillow, French fries, a couple barettes.

We use one 3rd row seat only. On the left side I stretch bungees from the grab handle to the seat mount. In the space between the bungees and the panel I keep hiking poles, a tripod camp chair, and my Utah trails Atlas.

There's the gate mouth bag with every tool required to fix the 80, another gate mouth bag with a tow strap, cargo straps, and gloves. When we head out I add the hi-lift recovery bag with chain and hi-lift tools.

Some day I'll grow up and get a tail gate storage compartment for these things.

My right side storage on my 93 was filled with almonds when I got it. Raw almonds. PO's family owned an almond farm or something in NorCal. Granted my entire truck was filled with raw almonds...

You have to pay extra for those?
 
Passesenger side: power inverter and surge protector.
Driver side: spare belts, co2 tank hoses and fittings and spare heater hose.
 
Nope! Free of charge!



They were fresh at some point... They were all raw almonds. Which are pretty freaking disgusting tasting.

Dude, you're not supposed to eat the things you find in the pockets of the cars you buy.

Most of what I am seeing here is bigger than what fits behind the access covers, especially the little one on the right. Are you removing the whole panel to access the fender well, or is there that much difference between an LX like mine and a true LC? Would to free up space in the cargo area from tow straps, jumpers, etc.

USDS-Jack, tool roll, fix-a-flat
USPS-1st aid kit

I removed the mobile phone hardware and relocated a harness in my LX in the DS panel. Everything I stated in my list fits with the covers on. The gate mouth bags obviously don't fit, they are my extra storage solutions. I honestly don't even know why I brought them up in this thread. And the French fries, they are on the floor and in the seat cracks too. Sorry if I misled anyone.
 
Drivers side has the toyota bottle jack, spare air compressor line, and two spare lower control arms. Passenger side has drop hitch with a convertaball setup, coiled compressor hose and air chuck, spare d-rings, and hitch pins
 
Mine has a 25' Tow Strap (Amazon) and a Lifestraw
 
Hoses, belts, jack adapter, along with the factory stuff on the drivers side that I hope I never need. :eek:

Is this your DD? No way in hell I could drive around daily w/all that rattling around. I have OCD on rattles/squeaks so I keep my daily cargo to a minimum. When I 'travel' I load the s*** out of it like that, though. If it's not your DD then I'm envious as hell that you have that ready to GTFO @ a moments notice!!!
