Do you have a car totem?

[SilverRocket]

I'm curious to know if others here keep something special/sentimental in your car(s)?

Personally I keep a small stuffed animal in mine, my "Co-Pilot Monkey", who rides shotgun in the cup holder. It all started when our family got fed up of not being able to tell which one was our Civic back in the early 2000's so he was purchased and hung from the rearview mirror to identify the car more easily. When I was eventually given the car as a hand me down, he came with the car. When I upgraded to my first purchased car a few years later, he made the move with me and now that I got the ITS he's ready to experience the G's right along side me. It's at least 20 years old now and I intend to keep it with me until I no longer can drive.

What is your center console wrapped in? Looks nice

Thanks. It's VViViD+ Square Carbon Vinyl which I did myself. It's about as close as you can get to the dark grey pattern on the dash.

I like the look of the oem dash skin and this looks like a darker version of it; I agree. I may just do my center console and dash trims in this.. thanks for sharing mate

I have a trunk monkey in mine and has been in all my previous cars since 2006 when I had a 2005 STI back then. Kind of brings me luck I guess (nothing major ever happened to my past rides).

That's a really cool tradition with your co-pilot monkey! I don't really have anything special in my car, but I like the idea of keeping something like that as a little talisman.

I have a single sleigh type bell (tarnished) on a red cord. I hang it from the rearview as my only Christmas decoration. Probably around 15 years.

nothing. I keep the car totally empty. I don't like any unnecessary clutter. OCD.
