Purpose and Function in the Center Console

It combines a lockable storage compartment with an ashtray function and a 12V power port, facilitating the connection of accessories such as chargers, navigation systems, or dashcams. This solution helps maintain order in the cabin while providing convenient power access for additional devices.

The element features a black finish, allowing it to blend well with factory Volkswagen panels. The design, intended for front vehicle installation, ensures ergonomic use by both the driver and the passenger. The integrated 12V port, located within the storage/ashtray area, allows for discreet cable routing, minimizing visibility and enhancing cockpit aesthetics.

Benefits of Using an Original Volkswagen Component

Using an original Volkswagen component ensures a perfect fit for the center console, eliminating the need for modifications or adjustments to the mounting points. This results in:

• Preservation of the interior's consistent styling line,
• The storage compartment's opening and closing mechanism functioning according to factory specifications,
• The 12V port being located in the position designated by the vehicle manufacturer.

This type of solution is particularly beneficial when replacing a damaged part or restoring the interior to a factory-like condition after modifications.
