Coins?

So my q7 had a great place for change but it seems the x3 does not. Where are you guys putting change?

There's a little compartment below the light switch on the left.

Some of us dont have those with certain options included that need that space for their brain.

I picked up one of these and it seems to do the job: http://amzn.com/B00C73D8V6

I bought a kiddies purse from a charity shop for 20p! Needless to say I try not to get it out in public, but it does the trick.

This lives in my drivers cubby under the light switch.

I use a bulk chewing gum container in the passenger side drink holder.

I bought two of the BMW cupholder inserts that used to come standard with some vehicles a while back. Perfect fit but it does not organize (separate) the coins. I just toss them in loose. When I need to carry a thermos or something, I just pop one out.

Canadian model here, Don't have the compartment below the lights switch.
I've resorted to using the arm rest well in the driver's door for change (next to the window controls).

I use a silicone change purse that cost about $3. I keep it in the arm rest. Something like this: http://www.debcosolutions.com/EN-US/...16&pricing=CAD
