And not even a lug wrench.....I did find that kind of surprising...but then again, what the heck are you going to do with it....at least with the fuse puller you can make your NPP really LOUD all the time!!!!

Why would you need a tool box.

You can use the empty left rear storage compartment for some small, basic hand tools. The other side will have the car battery in it.

Unless you have a regular C6, then the battery is in the engine compartment and you have two (muffler heated) storage spaces.

One of the most modded -- and least discussed -- part of a C6 is the right rear cubbie. That's where I keep the following:

Owner's manual
NAV instructions
Multi-bit screwdriver (w/#15 torx)
LED flashlight
Emergency tire repair kit in zipper pouch containing:
  • 12V air pump (originally for a Harley)
  • digital tire gauge
  • T-handle puncture repair awl
  • rubber repair 'noodles'
Small jar of ultra-fine chrome polish (for wheels)
Small bottle of Rain-X
Lambs wool washing mitt
Chamois
Clean microfiber cloth

... and last, but certainly not least:
Set of four lifting pucks

I'm betting that there is plenty of stuff in a Corvette that is made in China.
