People are only just noticing secret compartments hidden in their cars – can you find yours?
NOVICE drivers have recently noticed secret compartments in their cars after motoring aficionados revealed the top spots to find the hidden gems.
The special features have become sensations on social media with many motorists keen to find what is hidden in their vehicles.
Most car enthusiasts have taken to TikTok to upload their discoveries.
Social media user @brandon.haneline filmed a short clip about a secret nook he found in his Jeep Wrangler.
In the video, he guides viewers through his car but then zooms in to the inside handle people use to pull themselves into a vehicle.
The man then pops it open and hidden inside is money secretly stowed away.
He said: “I found a secret compartment in this Jeep Wrangler.
“What would you hide in here… wait for it.
“Let me know what you would hide in the comments.”
The video went gangbusters, attracting more than 177,000 views with plenty of drivers keen to share their thoughts.
“Wow, love your videos,” a TikTok user said.
“OMG,” one said.
“Thanks a lot, I am going to use this,” another said.
The Jeep discovery was not a one off however, plenty of other motorists revealed their top finds.
TikToker @Jedhasselloverland posted about the hidden compartment in his Volkswagen Touareg.
In the video, the man filmed a small montage where he reveals a handy piece of roadside kit underneath one of his car seats.
He is then seen folding up the chair, revealing a cord and a pump.
The pump is then connected to a hidden air compressor used to inflate tyres – a great find that can save drivers a bit of cash.
Another driver revealed a little-known fact that shocked millions as a tiny hole is shown in his car.
In the video, captioned “What!! Who knew to do this?” what looks like a plug is removed in and water inside the car door comes pouring out.
Many commentators were clearly taken by surprise by the motors tip with many asking if it was real.
One said: “Can’t tell if this is for real or y’all are playing along.”
However, the so-called drain holes are the real deal.
Water can get past window seals and inside the doors when it rains or when you wash your car, and the water is supposed to exit through drain holes at the bottom.
But those holes at the bottom of your doors can get clogged up over time due to dirt or gravel and debris from the road.
One motorist took viewers by surprise when he showed people a feature that was ideal for watching television while waiting for the car to be fully charged.
TikTok user @vanaramauk revealed the secret storage compartment that only the Nissan Ariya has.
The hidden compartment pops out of the dash at the touch of a button and can provide a platform to mount a digital device when charging up.
Users were shocked after discovering this secret feature.
One said: “Love it.”
Another said: “That was pretty dope.”
