Are we suppose to have a removable ash try in the other whole in the console? If so, mine was stolen at the dealer. :shrug:

If that's the case, is it worth me buying a replacement ? Not that I would smoke in the car (I quit 4 years ago), just wondering if its useful for anything else or if it looks better than the empty hole ?

It's useless unless you smoke. Most people I know including myself just toss it to the side. It makes a good cup holder or place for change if there's no ashtry. I'm sure people would sell it to you ... you can have mine for $5 :p

Nope, just at a construction company in Homewood, IL. ... always looking for a new opportunity!

Are you serious??? The car had an ashtray?? All this time I thought it was weird that it didn't have one. Now I am a part time smoker and would NEVER smoke in my car, but what does it look like? My dealer is getting a call today...

The ashtray in question is an OPTIONAL Ford part. It does not come with the car as far as I know. None of the Mustangs come with ashtrays anymore for that matter. You have to order it from the parts department and it just sits in the drink holder.

Mine came with the "smokers package" which is esssentially an ash tray and a cigarette lighter instead of the dummy plug which many come with. I sold the ash tray to a member on this board for $10.

That makes sense then. I've got the blank plug in the outlet. So it looks like nothing was stolen afterall. :)

I couldn't stand the looks of the cheesy looking 12volt piece of plastic plug that Ford installs in the lighter hole so even though I would never use it, I put a lighter in there. Came out of a friends guzzler, an 03 Excursion.

Yeah, it's a smokers package. Included ashtray and lighter. No sense in all the non smokers having to pay for something they will never use.
