I just thought of a real spot! If you remove the console / pannel that sourrounds the shift knob - it is one piece, including the ashtray part...

There is a pocket / separate compartment where the ashtray would go into - but you can't get to it if you simply remove the ashtray... you have to remove that part of the pannel.

It pops up and out very easily and you don't need to remove the boot from the stick shift. You can simply rotate it - there is plenty of play in the boot. be carefull not to scratch the aluminum pannel or the leather around. Use a flat head screwdriver wrapped in cloth to pop the pannel up - really very easy!

I recently ran wires for the sub so had the entire center console disassembled - just remembered about that spot!
