Nice rubber gaskets and hole cover flap. I also found a dual port USB (power only) lighter adapter that I'll deconstruct and mount on the dash, wired into the lighter circuit for charging gizmos and such. Let me know if you find some crazy good heater flap gasket material. Gotta do that when the dash is off to replace my leakish heater core and creaky motor.
