That ugly coin holder seems to be bugging me more now then it has in the past. I know they use to have a SCT flip chip that would fit in there but they don't seem to make it anymore. I also know there is a polished cover that'll go over it but that cover is uglier then the coin holder itself. I've tried to find a way to put a switch (for a line lock) there but I can't find anything that'll fit and look good. Has anyone found a good way to get rid of that ugly thing?

I filled mine with epoxy, drilled a hole in it, filed it out square, and put an illuminated rocker switch in there.

That's probably not a bad idea. I just can't believe no company has came up with a clean way of getting rid of that coin holder yet. I'm almost at the point of getting a fog light switch from an older mustang and just using that to fill that spot.

I'm sure this would fit but I don't know how or if I can remove the image on the switch

I swapped my bezel to accommodate my Cobalts and put my fog switch there.
