People have probably been doing it forever but I have noticed more use of 'props' in or on cars this show season.
Picnic baskets, portable record players, that sort of thing.
What do people think, yay or nay?
Please share pics of props that work. I will add some when I have downloaded from camera.

I've decided I'm going to use my Retro old type gameboy as a show prob on the dash as it turns out they were released the same year as my car was made! ;D
If done right it can look well cool!

I'm converting a 1950's radio into an iPod dock at some point. Not worth keeping as a radio because it's that knackered but it'll look cool as a seat accessory and for some tchoons in the car  |

There were some smoked herrings under my driving seat and some of that 'Kinekulle Ring' sauce you can only buy from IKEA in the Volvo but I had to take them out because the hum was frankly vile.

Now that /\ is quality!
I'm pretty sure I saw photos of a display at an indoor US show that was a full size version of a model garage or modelers workbench diorama with the actual model displayed as well. Full size included parts on sprues, paint pots etc.
