Default Replacing ash tray with???

ive been looking around for something to put in my ash tray slot but i cant find anything because i dont know what its called... i want something like a dash kit to cover the hole, and if i can find a piece i was gonna cut out some holes for some switches and move my ride height , sport, and etc power button up to it. i have a shifter boot that covers the gear display and the buttons so its not a problem to run more wires and move them. basically im just modding everything, any ideas?

A genuine part for UCF20/21 "no smokers box" which has a part No. 08171-50020 is available in Japan. Removing the original tray, you just can fit it in. It may be available in US too.

yamae i've been looking for that part (with that part number) for YEARS but can't get a hold of one in the US without getting it directly imported from jp

Last search I tried about a year ago had people in hiroshima telling me it was discontinued?

I did a search after I saw this thread and I couldn't find anything outside of Japan. The translation of the pages that I did find appear to indicate that this part is discontinued. Too bad, it is a nice piece.

that sucks-_-. any other ideas on what i can do or and other parts i can modify to fit? i just need that area for switches, and i know you guys urge people to buy parts made for the car, but i bought it for 500 bucks and i brought it back from the dead with simple tune ups and mods. i plasti-dipped the bottom half of the two tone put on some ceramic brakes put on a cold air intake, ripped out the cd changer the factory amp , ripped out the phone system, plugged the horribly leaky hole in the power steering pump. im just trying to give you guys an idea. I DONT want ugly 1993 factory parts i want nice 2012 looking DIY parts
