Cadillac LED Ashtray
The problem with most car ashtrays is not capacity; it is smell. A loose-fitting lid lets stale smoke back into the cabin every time the car heats up in the sun, and the odour works into the headlining and seats. This one seals when closed, so what goes in stays in until you empty it.
Ceramic Liner, Not Bare Plastic
The outer shell is ABS, but the inside is lined with ceramic. That matters for two reasons: a live cigarette resting against ceramic will not scorch or melt it the way it marks plain plastic, and ceramic does not absorb tar the way plastic does, so the interior stays clean and wipes out properly rather than going permanently yellow.
Blue LED, Automatic
A blue LED sits inside the lid and comes on by itself the moment you open it. Useful at night — finding the opening in a dark footwell without taking your attention off the road is exactly the moment things get dropped. It switches off again when the lid closes.
Choosing a Size
Three sizes are available. All share the same 8 cm diameter; what changes is the depth:
- 8 × 6.5 cm
- 8 × 9 cm
- 8 × 12 cm
Measure the depth of your cup holder before choosing — the taller versions hold more but sit higher out of the holder.
Emptying and Cleaning
The top twists off the base, so the ceramic liner lifts straight out for emptying and washing. No awkward shaking over a bin, and nothing that has to be cleaned in place inside the car.
What’s in the Box
One Cadillac LED ashtray in your selected size.
Frequently Asked Questions — Cadillac LED Ashtray
Which size should I choose? +
All three are 8 cm across; the difference is depth. Measure your cup holder before deciding — a deeper unit holds more but stands higher out of the holder, which can foul the centre armrest on some models when it is closed.
Will it fit my Cadillac’s cup holder? +
It is 8 cm in diameter, which sits in a standard cup holder across the Cadillac range. Deeper holders take any of the three sizes; shallower ones suit the 6.5 cm version better. It is not fixed to the car, so it also works in a door bin or centre console tray if your holders are occupied.
Does it actually stop the smell? +
The lid seals when closed, which is what keeps odour contained — most cheap ashtrays fail here because the lid only rests on top. Empty it regularly all the same. No sealed container stops smell indefinitely once ash and butts have been sitting in a hot car for a week.
Can I put it in the dishwasher? +
The ceramic liner can be washed by hand or in a dishwasher once removed. The lid section contains the LED and its power source, so that part should only be wiped with a damp cloth and never submerged.
Is this a genuine GM part? +
No. This is an aftermarket accessory that sits in the cup holder rather than replacing any factory component. Caddyaccessories is an independent retailer and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by General Motors or Cadillac.
