Default What are these things?

There are two things in my NAH that don't seem to documented and I wonder if anyone knows...

1) The orange light in the overhead console near the passenger map light. It's not always on, and I can't figure out what caused it to go on!

2) In the cup holder unit between the seats, there are two curved indentations that LOOK like they might be for coins, but clearly don't fit any US coins. What are these for???

Thanks!
Eph

1) Are you sure? It's not very bright or large enough to be a caution indicator. It's really tiny and not easy to see, cause you have to look up at the map light console...

2) Which coins? I can't find any that it fits.

Thanks!

1. I think it's for Bluetooth. That's also where the Bluetooth mic is located.

2. I wondered the same thing. There are coin slots already in the armrest.

The little orange light goes on when you turn on your park lights and/or head lights. It helps you see the dash and center consol at night. Many cars such as Lexus have this as well. To check it out, turn your lights on at night in a dark place such as your garage or street. Cover up the little light and you will see the differnce. Yes those little areas near the cup holders are for coins. But I do not use it.
