0:25 it's a very BAD idea to put any water bottles on a passanger side floor because it can roll to a driver side floor if it's an suv or van... it happened to me once after that i never put ANYTHING on or under front passanger/driver seat...

Just wanted to ask why you haven't covered the airbag issue. Please add that to this video as I know several people who have objects lying around on the passenger side of the dash which in the event of a collision can become dangerous projectiles due to the airbag deployment (or should I say...explosion)
