Okay, now if you put something in that cup, isn't that going to rattle and cause more noises... noises that you originally wanted to remove?

I guess you can line it with felt?

I lined the bottom of the center console cup area with felt. Works like a charm and i'm sure would work just as well in this "secret" area.

Has anyone placed a speaker in there wether it was a ML center channel or aftermarket? I am sure power is going to that harness.

What he means secret compartment I think he means for emergency only, something that needs to be hidden quickly Wink Wink.

Great heads-up. Line the cup with felt or thin foam to stop hidden items from rattling.
