Hi Min01, you could always keep your makeup in the LR pouch eh

In fact, most, if not all, of that stuff is original LR and many would like it for their truck, it's valuable as many throw theirs away when they sell.

It's bigger than I need for my make up. Actually, The other three items fit inside the pouch. There's room for my laptop plus my make up.

I think you win the prize so far. I note there are three Magnums but only two Red Bulls.

- Two buttons in a little plastic bag
- A house key?
- And a 1 Euro coin?







If you want to check your disco for treasure and clean that rubber mat while you are at it, here you go:
1. To remove shift ****, put key in and shift to neutral then press the shifter button and pull straight up very hard. (Try not to give yourself a black eye)
2. Pull up on each corner of the PRNDL cover. Be careful for wires connecting on the back side of the cover.
3. Remove the low range/CDL selector by pulling up on the leather surround and turning the **** counter clockwise.

Pretty straight forward. I have only owned my disco for six months so there is a lot to uncover from the previous owners. I am interested to see what everyone else finds, so report back if you try it yourself!
Not to mention the radiation dosimeter film. Is the truck glowing in the dark?

Those Kodak stuff looks like dental xray films.

I didn't show it in the picture, but on the back of the kodak film is some sort of prescription tag with one of the previous owner's name on it. I looked her up on facebook and she's a ~60 year old lady living in long island. Shes also a registered nurse. The film records radiation waves and is commonly used in hospitals.

Yeah, I too am **** enough I looked it up. From what I read they are used to monitor radiation exposure to healthcare professionals to help ensure they are not exposed to it excessive amounts of x-ray radiation.
