Post 2001 owners, help please

a strange request, I know. could someone possibly send me a picture of the toolkit in the car. I am trying to see if there is a difference between the space for the triangle on the 2000 vs. the 2001 toolkit.
TIA

Thanks for the pictures. The reason was this. I went to England a week ago and bought some stuff that we don't get on the US cars but the Europeans do. One item was the triangle, it fits in my car perfectly. One of the guys with a 2001 though had trouble. I think the toolkit is different in the two cars.

Whats up with the triangle? In the US they ship the cars so that a gun will fit perfectly in the tool box. Oh, sorry, that is an option for Southern California cars only

Mark,

You have obviously never been in McCurtain county in southeastern Oklahoma. When you enter the county, the cops check for guns. If you don't have one they issue one to you. The county back in the 80's (don't know about today) had the highest murder rate per capita in the U.S.

Enjoy the ride!!

Simon,

So, can you see any difference between the 2001 picture posted and your car?

The triangle did fit... very snugly!
