Simon - I'm pretty sure that all Healeys had ashtrays from the factory.
At the changeover to the BJ8, the square hole in the center shift gearbox
cover was omitted as the ashtray was now mounted into the console. In
addition, a couple of studs were molded into the fiberglass for a mounting
bracket for the console.
If you are getting a carpet as part of a kit, the ash tray hole will likely
not be there - they usually leave that to the installer. Your call as to
whether or not to fill the hole. Personally I'd keep it - for small stuff
like 'fuses and valve caps'.

Subject: [Healeys] Ash Tray
I determined, with your help, that I have an original tunnel cover for my
BT7 MkII. Fibre glass, centre change box.
Some of you pointed out peculiarities concerning the ash tray fitting.
I'll be getting a new tunnel cover carpet and, as these seem to be more or
less bespoke, I'm wondering whether to keep the ash tray or fibre glass over
the square hole.
Did all original tunnel covers come with a hole fitted for ash trays?
And thus some had the ash tray actually fitted and some had the hole
carpeted over?
Or what?
Was the ash tray an optional extra which, in fact, was fitted to most cars.
Like wire wheels...
Nobody will ever smoke in my car. I just use the ash tray for spare fuses,
valve caps and the like..
I'll have to let the carpet people know one way or the other.
Simon
