Odd bits in your car?

I've just completed the parts collection for my heater assembly, and I'm using some anaesthetic gas circuit tubing between the fan and the matrix. I almost used an old Stratos Replica Club membership card inside my gearlever gaiter, but used plywood instead!
What bizarre non-automotive components have you built into your car?

How about rubber washers in approx 1-inch diameter, from bottle tops of Newquay Steam (or else Grolsch or Newcastle Brown)!

A large plastic ring from a childs quoit set used to stop intermittent horn contact behind the steering wheel boss.

A small pile of lego used as a spacer.

How about some _working_ Lucas electrics?

hey - someone NOT complaining about Italian electrics! This must be the wiper motor? I wrote a huge article about how to wire this to the (various) Fiat column stalks in one of the newsletters! Check your CD out!
