It’s pretty straightforward – it's a receptacle for cigarette or cigar ash and butts. Some have lids to contain the smell and keep things a bit neater, and some even have little grooves to hold cigarettes while you're not actively smoking. Well, historically, it was a standard piece of interior equipment in pretty much every car. Nowadays, fewer people smoke in their cars, so they’re becoming less common as standard equipment. But if you or your passengers do smoke, it gives a designated, safe place for ash – keeps it from ending up on the floor, in the vents, or worse. It’s generally designed to fit into a specific spot in the console or somewhere convenient. It's not a critical component like your brakes, obviously. But having a dedicated ashtray is about keeping the interior clean and preventing a fire hazard. Ash can smolder, and you don’t want that near fabric or plastic. It’s about maintaining the value of your car’s interior, frankly. And if you're a smoker, you’ll notice if it’s missing pretty quickly. You can find replacements easily enough. We stock a good range at Fixparts Online, or most auto parts stores will have them. It's one of those small things that makes a big difference in everyday comfort and cleanliness.
