Default What do you store in your Z?

What essential items do you store in the nooks and crannies of your 350Z?

For me, I always carry in the car:

- A SureFire flashlight (the best and brightest tactical flashlights around)
- Digital tire pressure gauge
- Windshield sunshade
- Folding umbrella
- A cheap pen (REALLY comes in handy sometimes)
- Can of CN tear gas (never had to use it...yet)
- Swiss Army and Kershaw knives
- Cotton towel to clean windows
- Standard stuff: owner's manual, insurance card, registration

Of course....

Actually I don't keep it there all that often. I live in PA and work in NJ. I don't take it over state lines...

dead bodies.

The rear cargo area tray from courtesyparts.com helps ALOT to prevent blood stains on the carpet.
No need to carry weapons, I find the tire iron to do the job fairly well.

Here we go again. I predict this thread will inevitably become a comparison of guns that people carry in their Z's.

It happens about every 5 months.

I carry a lot of junk in the glove compartment. None of it is of any interest or use. Actually, I currently have the rear hatch weight in there, for whatever reason.

Notepad & pen for service info and for writing notes (if needed)
Flashlight
One time use camera for accidents (if we're involved) or idiots on the road needing their picture taken.
Small bottle of waterless hand cleaner. Too much kid (minivan) influence.
