There's a tiny vent next to the cubby hole below the climate controls. Basically where the cigarette lighter is but on the driver side. I installed the mic for my new Bluetooth stereo next to it and my wife says it sounds like there's a fan blowing when I talk to her through the stereo. I was just curious what it's purpose is.

I believe there is a fan there and, if memory serves correct, it's the intake for the cabin air temp sensor for the climate control system.

from the forum FAQs (link at top of page)

"Can I post Images?
Images can indeed be shown in your posts. However, there is no facility at present for uploading images directly to this board. Therefore you must link to an image stored on a publicly accessible web server, e.g. http://www.some-unknown-place.net/my-picture.gif. You cannot link to pictures stored on your own PC (unless it is a publicly accessible server) nor to images stored behind authentication mechanisms such as Hotmail or Yahoo mailboxes, password-protected sites, etc. To display the image use either the BBCode [img] tag or appropriate HTML (if allowed)."

I use Photobucket to post pics, but there are a number of others that do it just as well.

Photobucket sucks on my phone. Way too many advertisements. I used Flickr to post the photo above. Anybody able to use their Google account to post photos? I can use Flickr for now, but I still don't know what the vent is for.
