Ocean 6.1 MY 23 Dashboard cubby holes

[ParachuteMan]

What do people use the cubbyholes for in the 6.1 Ocean dashboard. They seem useless as nothing nothing fits

 

[CaliTraveller]

Ikea has cheap plant pots that fit perfectly

Drivers side is extra strong mints, passenger side is starbursts, pens & selection of dips for McDonalds along with sugar sachets.

Drivers side a cheap torch that I don’t mind if it drops out the door, otherwise not very practical. The ones on top of the dash nothing due to reflection off screen.

I agree to both your comments. Somewhat frustrating…

Dash, hat and sunnies. Charging cable, for my tyre pressure monitor system from China, when it needs a charge every 3 months. Switchbot temperature monitor under the hat.
Mirror swinging plastic reminder to the VW garage NOT to wash the California as they will bugger up the PPF on the front end and the 5 year ceramic coating in the rest of bodywork.
Right hand side cubby hole.
Nail cutters, tooth pick and nail file when I get a bad man’s friend. And I need to sort it.
Left hand side. Tissues, small £1 wet wipes, microfibre cloth, mints and in the pen holder but, under a rubber pen, and torch.
doors hold a slip load of bits n bobs, the bin, and bin from last California my real tree 10x42 bins, another torch and drugs. Spray for touch screen from the Range Rover. And other micro fibre cloth.
Two red yeti mugs in the cup holders.
Bottles of water in doors.
First aid kit in pass door. Diesel gloves.
I have a firestick in drivers seat side cubby ting and a very powerful torch.
I find plenty of places to put stuff

Excellent ideas. Many Thanks. I’ll have a play tomorrow

Which Yeti mugs do you use that fit, I need to buy some new travel mugs as none of my existing ones fit in the holders on top of the dash.

These are quite large, which is really good as they keep their heat/cold for ages. The fit is perfect:

As @Viktorgeorge says, the 16 oz ones.
Expensive but hold my PSL hot for many hours, and get a discount.

Perfect, thanks for letting me know. 2 recommendations for the same cups. Just ordered a couple.

Drivers side is just a garage door remote
Passenger side lower tray suits mobile phones. Top cubby is for sweets, a book and screen wipes

Where did you find these for this price? I can't see anything near £12.50 each!

We have these too, they are very good. But they are £25 each, not £12.50. You can get a blue light / military discount though, if you qualify - 20% IIRC.

They are pretty useless. They annoyed me for a while but now I don't really think about them.

Coping strategies:

• Manual in the pocket on the side of the seat (either side mine's in the right).
• I've unplugged the light on the panel of the right seat back. A 4l or so plastic container under there with various bits and pieces, fuses, adapters and suchlike.
• I use the seat back pockets for lots of stuff.
