Center Console Black Grille?

Featured Replies

Currently noticed on a Titanium 1.4 but may be on lower models too...

There's a small thin black grille in the centre console (in line with the top of the gearknob) above a small cubbyhole for change/cards, etc. What's it for?

It doesn't blow air, on any setting, and seems to sit a card (licence, bankcard, etc) in nicely except for the topmost slot, which is stiff.

Is that it's purpose, for holding cards, or folded bank notes, etc?

(I'll post a picture in the morning if people don't know what I'm on about)



On Zetec S you have the ESP off switch, believe you can also have passenger air bag deactivation switch and parking sensor switch?

This is the ESP button.

Is this the one that looks like two thin slots? I believe it's a card holder, I keep my Shell fuel card in it.

as above, if you get the top end models, or i not sure if its just down to the 'S' then it would have a button for the ESP, and to save making separate designs they just filled it in with a bit of cheap plastic... keeps fords costs down suppose

Car holder...I am really wondering what they had in mind when they added that to the central console...I would have preferred something different. And anyway, card are safer in the wallet ;)
