OFF TOPIC (I'm sorry)

Talking of "secret" storage spaces; I assume everyone is aware of the space on the inside of the glove compartment (at the very top) to store the owner's manuals?

BTW, local XR specs have heated/cooled glove compartments, controlled by the passenger side's climate control setting.

BRB, checking glovebox and "secret" hatchback storage area right NAO!!!!!oneeeelevenety1111

I'm loving this car more than my girlfriend's legs. Well, almost as much.

EDIT: Yes, on the top of the glovebox, there is a "slot" that fits the owner's manual perfectly. These guys thought of everything. But I won't be using it to hold my manual. I have all my yaris paperwork, including my window sticker, in my Toyota "welcome package", which includes the owner's manual, warranty information, etc. all in a nice, vinyl binder. Feels hefty, and expensive. :p

I did not find any "secret area" in the hatchback. I know the spare is under the fiberboard/carpet "floor", but I saw no 'secret compartment".

Anyone care to clue me in? Am I missing something?

The "secret area" is the space directly above the recessed spare tire. You can store and hide items in there.

It's basically just a false floor in the trunk.
