I got this idea from a visit to Randy Forbes' garage. Randy had tons and tons of small consumable parts in stock. I do too, but I don't have them as organized as he does. I bought 2 nice Stanley small parts organizers from Amazon and I filled them with small frequently used parts for coupes. One box is mostly interior parts, the other is exterior. I made labels with my label maker for each bin, and I printed the last 7 digits of each part number. This makes it easy to order replacements when needed. There is still room to grow, I didn't do any of the electrical connectors and pins, bulbs, etc.
When you browse EPC, the last 7 digits of a part number is usually enough to find the part you are looking for.
So, if you know a coupenut and you are stumped for a gift idea, consider this one. The cases and parts in the pics are going to a coupenut I know...
