Hey everyone. Just purchased a 97 850T5. Nice car.
So far I had to replace the drivers side CV Axle.
Both front end way bar ends links replaced with IPD HD links.
Passengers side was creaking over bumps.
Was wondering if there's any good ol stash spots for small items?

If your 850 is a sedan, there's a compartment on the rear deck that works well for smaller things. At least I think that was on the 850... the S70 has it. Otherwise there's the ash tray, console, and glove box. No secret compartments I'm familiar with!

I know of no stash spots in the 850. Unless you peel back the carpet and put stuff down where the heater core is.
My first new car was a 1995 Dodge neon. The top of the dashboard would easily flip up and it was a good place to hide stuff.

If you have the space-saver spare, spare tire compartment. Or take the spare out if you like to live dangerously.

If you put pepper on the carpets the dogs won't find it.
