Knob under ashtray

**Tony Mendez** · 08-31-2012

I came across a knob under the ashtray of my 2004 Comp G. What is it for?

Like you took the ashtray out and there's a knob underneath it? Might be the shift release button. Can you snap a pic?

A knob like old stereos had knobs?

A black knob about the size of a Chap Stick cap.

I bet its for an stereo amp? or for a timing adj?

Can you do anything with said knob? Like turn it or push it or anything?

**Swiggles** · 08-31-2012

Does anything happen if you turn it? It kinda looks like its just a cap for a bolt, my other thought is that maybe it holds the ashtray in place. Is there anything similar on the bottom of the ashtray?

Is it a screw cover to take the ash tray out?

Its a rotary knob of some sort. Not a screw cover and the ashtray is already out and I found this puzzling knob under it.

Drug deal own your car before you? Maybe there's a hidden compartment somewhere lol.

I'm guessing by the responses that this mystery knob is not a factory installed item. It turns just short of 1 revolution before it stops. Can't see any wiring at the moment but my OCD has kicked in and I won't be able to sleep until I figure out what this thing is. I'm going in!
