The Coin Holder in GS430 is to small and it always seems to open up suddenly when loaded and drop all the coins on the floor! Anyone make a better deeper coin holder that fits in the same spot etc?

I know the coin holder isn't that big but it will still hold a few dollars worth of quarters. How much change do you load up in that thing? if you have that much just use your center consle and keep rolls of dimes, nickels, and quarters

If you are a non smoker, dump the ashtray for a non-smoker's box and throw the coins in there.

Otherwise, what I did was get a spring loaded coin holder (can't remember from where) and velcro it to the inside of the center consoles lower section. That way it doesn't boounce around.

If you don't want to spend the $25 for the non-smoker box, the Last alternative is to remove the ashtray metal lip (the black metal part hanging down about 1/4" in size at the top of the ashtray) and throw the coins in there anyhow. You may want to do something to pad it somehow, otherwise the coins will rattle.
