we have a USA 2019 XL. We are wondering what this clip is for on the inside of the center console box. Any ideas?

before TPMS sensors kept one of these in the holder. Still handy when putting air in the tires, to double check the the gauge on filler hoses.

Hadn't noticed it before, but it looks to be about the right size for a Slim Jim. Always good to have a snack within reach on those longer drives.

I think its for a pen but Ive tried several and none seem to fit --- I settled on a tire pressure gauge. hey fyi amazon has a few trays that fit the console for less than 20 and make it a whole lot more useful.

It’s the only thing I got to fit in mine I‘ll take one of those!

If you take a closer look it even looks like a pencil with eraser and all.

Cut a portion off a pencil, and then just slide it into the clip?
