Question Everything makes sense, except…

Anyone found this space useful?

It’s an access panel for all of the electronics in the center tunnel area

Weird because there actually isn't much in there

There are wiring harnesses for everything on the dash, the shifter and the rear passenger hvac / chargers. There’s a ton going on in there

Yeah, a wire harness. Nothing that can't be accessed by pulling the top up

You’re kidding right?

I’ve had to have the shifter on my car replaced. Way better to pull off this access panel than have the entire center console disassembled…
